[FedCom] DOE Transportation Safeguards Division Radio Communications?

[lists]

On the topic of the DOE, they write nastigrams to people who publish 
their frequencies.
http://www.radioreference.com/modules.php?name=TRSDB&sid=909
is a good example of their tactics. Now I don't know if they have a 
legal standing to have this information removed from the net.

I've been gathering trunk radio info on the Nellis ranges (which of 
course contains the DOEs Nevada Test Site) when I visit the range. There 
is quite a bit of federal trunking going on there with 35 Edacs 
frequencies for Groom Lake and many more for the DOE. Radioreference 
lists the information under the National Nuclear Security Agency. There 
are a few mistakes in the information, but since I don't have the NTS 
trunk system fully documented myself, I don't want to fix the RR 
information piece meal.

I don't have much NTS audio uploaded to the net, but here is a nuclear 
test count down:

If you scan the system, it's mostly service personnel going about 
keeping the place running and security keeping track of vehicles as they 
trip the road sensors.
