For everyone who likes to listen to package delivery companies I found UPS in Macon from what it shows on the digital frequency search website its a NXDN system only uses four frequencies and which are as follows:

System callsign:
WQNS928

Frequencies:
451.2375
451.2875
451.3625
451.4125

Notes: I never hear anything when I'm near their sorting center so I am not sure if its quiet most of the time or not active.

FWIW, I was able to successfully identify the usage of all but 1 frequency that are in use by my local UPS hub (Northbrook, IL) by using an external antenna on my car and parked right next door to them during their peak hours. Just like this hub, they use a couple of simplex UHF freqs (only they're all analog). Since they're low powered and most employees are inside the building (usually constructed with metal), don't be surprised if you have some difficulty hearing anything at all. But then again, after plugging in the lat/lon from the license, that hub is much smaller than NORIL so it could very well be that there isn't much radio traffic.
