Many cities have switched to either digital trunking systems, TRBO, Nexedge... whatever. There are many frequencies in the database such as Sioux Falls that are still in the database. Where the frequencies haven't been used for years. Even though they are still listed in the FCC database doesn't mean that they'll be used again. This is very confusing to people that are NOT local and are trying to monitor new radio systems. Many analog repeaters have even been taken out of service and frequencies are still listed. Let's get the world largest database accurate! :) We need everyones help to do this!

If you know the info you speak of to be 100% accurate then please submit it using the submission form.
This website depends entirely on (accurate) user submissions.
If nobody submits the updated info, the database will remain as is and the old data will also remain.

Same goes for missing info, if nobody submits known frequencies and what not, that info will never be added into the database until someone submits the info.

So if you know of something that has changed and are very certain of the info, then please do submit it so others may benefit.

I myself have not been to Sioux Falls in years so I have no idea what is accurate.

It doesn't mean that the city isn't licensed there anymore. Many cities keep their old conventional as a back up.

There area few Talkgroups in the Greensboro-Guilford County TRS that aren't in the database.
I've submitted them.
