I just bought it for my collection and I reprogrammed it for the Piedmont Division where the channel layout is much different.

Thanks

Those look like former NW, currently NS Virginia Division AAR channels.

Ohio maybe? Besides the 3 NS road channels-72, 76 and 22, you find the 2 common CSX road channels-08, 14, a CSX yard channel-20, the 3 former Conrail road channels-46, 64 and 58 plus channels used by short lines in Ohio-10, 92. The PBX channels I don't know about however.

That's what it looks like to me, too. 161.490 (92), among other things, is used by the Ann Arbor. And while Channel 56 is best known as a primary road channel on the Southern, I have also found it in use as a local-switching frequency in NW Ohio.

Yeah I would have to say Lake Div., whether it was the common list for crews either in Ft. Wayne or Bellevue. 92 is now currently used on the former NKP to Chicago. In fact, several of those could be used in the Chicago area. My guess is Lake Div. most likely Ft. Wayne. since possible runs into Elkhart would incorporate the former Conrail as well.
