Thanks - the IRP site list has site 33 as Parsons, Tucker Co. I'll look into it more closely when I'm in the area.

Thanks - the IRP site list has site 33 as Parsons, Tucker Co. I'll look into it more closely when I'm in the area.

So does the RRDB actually - 1-033 1-21 Thomas (Tucker)

1-033 = Zone 1, Site 33

I realize the name is different, but keep in mind that when we add them in the DB we add them based upon FCC records, whereas the WVIRP themselves often are using different names [apparently based on more local geographic / geologic references]. For all intents and purposes Thomas = Parsons. In actuality, the site [per FCC records] is between Thomas and Parsons, closer to Thomas.

But, also remember that the RRDB listing is based upon user submissions and monitoring. When the WVIRP originally started there was one zone. Then they split into two zones. Then they added a zone 3. And in the process, the wvirp.com site list shows what is proposed to be the [guessing] final layout, whereas the RRDB reflects what it looks like now.... with the caveat that there are some more sites listed in the RRDB that probably have changed zones or site IDs but nobody has monitored them to note and submit the changes.

Also keep in mind how things are referenced in the DB... you want to go by the leftmost designators [decimal]. For instance,

1-051 1-33 Philippi (Barbour)
| |-- Zone 1, site 33 (in hex) -- (T0133) in Pro96Com
|-- Zone 1, site 51 (in decimal) -- 151 in Pro96Com

So you are indeed seeing Philippi connected to Clarksburg. The wvirp.com PDF lists site IDs in decimal. The RRDB lists the sites in both formats, decimal on the left and hex on the right.
