Post subject:  ATCS update- CP fans unite!

Discovered this morning, the Canadian Pacific has cutover the Paynesville Sub from Shoreham to Paynesville, and possibly beyond to ATCS. This means the stretch is now fully monitorable! Don Schoenberger has been trying to see what coverage we might be able to nab off our main server location that is currently providing the existing BNSF Twin Cities area.

That being said, no single location will be able to pick up the entire stretch, so if anyone knows anyone along the stretch of Hwy 55, or NE MPLS, please reach out to me. Hosting a server can be inexpensive, and can be done as easy as having an antenna on a window sill in the upper floor of a house.

This is pretty cool info, and we hope that we'll be able to "serve" this data up in the near future!

Will,

The Canadian Pacific trackage from Universtiy Ave westward is just now coming on line with 900mhz ATCS radio code line. We've not been able to display it for 2 reasons.
1) It's not been truned on.
2) We have no receiver site/s.
Reason number 2 continues to exist, unless someone is willing to host a receiver site/s.

If you are experiencing problems, it maybe that you are using an older layout which may seem like some things aren't working properly. Nat should be uploading an updated Twin City Terminal kit soon. I've uploaded the Wayzata_Morris and Staples_KO kits to the ATCS Monitor Yahoo Group. If you or anyone else are having problems contact me directly, I'll be glad to help you.

I was talking about actual signal related problems that dispatchers have been having while I am at work.
