System Notes

This system is separate from the High West Energy system. Both utilities are part of the Touchstone Energy Cooperative which creates some confusion. High West operates on its own DMR system. https://www.taitradio.com/__data/assets/pdf_file/0014/50108/100_Tait-Case-Study-Black-Hills_US-Letter_WEB.pdf The frequencies are licensed without location data to “Daksoft, Inc. DBA Mayer Radio” with callsigns WPVG928-WPVG939 and WPZG663-WPZG689.
