To Whom It May Concern:
 
 
 
I have picked up radio traffic from an unknown railroad company in or near the Mattoon,
 
areaOn several occasions, have picked up traffic on 161.19 CSQI heard individuals
 
discussing "moving a heavy train" and referencing "signals in Effingham."  I also heard
 
one party on this frequency sign off by saying "Champaign out."  This suggests some
 
type of dispatch in or near Champaign is communicating on this frequency as well.  This
 
is obviously being used by a railroad company that operates, at the very least, between
 
Champaign, IL and Effingham, IL (Mattoon is between the other two towns).  Signal
 
strength of these transmissions varies between 3/5-5/5.  I use a Uniden BCD396XT with a
 
Diamond RH77CA.
