Hi all,
Did I find a lat/long boo-boo in the RR DB?
According to the RR DB, the location of NSRS Site 009, "Eagle Mountain" is N39 33 05.7 W119 28 56.6. But this doesn't look right. Eagle Mountain is a good 50 miles away, in Douglas County, and Google Earth reveals no radio towers at its peak.
I'm thinking the actual location of this site is perhaps "Eagle Head," at N39 35 22.7 W119 55 45.7, serving Reno. This location coincides with FCC license data and Google Earth reveals, indeed, a tower on the spot.
Not knowing the N39 33 area very well, I didn't want to submit a correction without some verification.
