I stumbled upon this one last August. This is relatively new and is at the Highland County Airport, near Hillsboro, Ohio. I sat in the lot for awhile running search and close call, but never received anything. Some time back there were listings for a few other remote sites that seemed to be based at County Airports. I cant remember if it was here or on Freq. of Nature. This would belong to Indy Center.

Kinekep, thanks a lot for the work you've done....very cool.

There was an RCO also co-located there at one time (5 yrs or so since I was there). I would assume it's still there, just don't know what may have changed since the Flight Service Station duties were moved to Lockheed(?).

Where do you get the RCAG information and coordinates? Ive looked around on the FAA site and I cant find anything along with the internet.

See this post: http://forums.radioreference.com/military-monitoring-forum/90922-faa-ata-100-link.html

The sites that I posed I found myself because I already knew where the are. They are easy to see or I knew the general area and found them on Google Earth.

The FAA's ATA-100 data is notorioulsly innacurate. For example, the Mineral Wells site is listed as being at the Mineral Wells Airport, when in reality it is about 20 miles west and most aircraft can't even talk to it when they are on the ground at the airport.

I don't know of any web site with maps like that.
Did you check the database Atlanta (ZTL) Air Route Traffic Control Center (ARTCC) Scanner Frequencies and Radio Frequency Reference and the wiki? http://wiki.radioreference.com/index.php/ARTCC
You can view the different types of current FAA sectional charts online at RunwayFinder - Aeronautical Charts - Flight Planning and SkyVector: Flight Planning / Aeronautical Charts certain charts have frequency information either on the chart or the index.

Yes I have been to rr database atlanta ztl and it just shows a map with a basic outline of the airspace. I just thought maybe there was a map like that but with RCAG location symbols and sector breakdowns for it.
