Electro-Mech's sales and shipping records for Chattanooga, Tennessee cover 177 rows across 103 organization entries - a file that spans nearly three decades and splits almost evenly between the company's pre-LX and LX-series catalog. This article presents every documented row from the evidence, explains the largest buyers in detail, and addresses the ZIP code and data-quality questions the file raises.
- What does the Chattanooga sales and shipping record actually show - how many rows, which sports, and how does it split between pre-LX and LX models?
- Which organizations in Chattanooga have the most Electro-Mech records on file, and what models appear in each file?
- How should I read the record - what do ZIP codes outside Chattanooga mean, and what does the file not tell us about installation?
Quick Answer
The Short Answer
Electro-Mech's records for Chattanooga, Tennessee show 177 sales and shipping rows across 103 organization entries, running from 1999 to 2025. The file is split nearly evenly between pre-LX and LX-series models - 82 pre-LX rows versus 95 LX rows - with basketball accounting for the largest share at 73 rows. Chattanooga Christian School holds the most records in the city at 10 rows, and five of the six most active buyers are private schools. The record covers what was sold and shipped; it does not confirm installation status or current field presence for any individual display.
Electro-Mech's sales and shipping records show 177 rows across 103 organization entries for the Chattanooga, Tennessee area, covering the period from March 1999 through at least 2025. The file splits 82 pre-LX rows against 95 LX-series rows - a nearly even division that makes Chattanooga unusual among Tennessee cities its size. Basketball accounts for 73 of the 177 rows, baseball for 54, football for 30, and other display types for 20; the 2350-C family is the most frequently appearing model across both eras, with 21 rows.
What Makes the Chattanooga Record Unusual Among Tennessee Cities?
Chattanooga's file splits almost evenly between pre-LX models and the current LX series - 82 pre-LX records against 95 LX records - a balance you rarely see when reading a single city's history with one manufacturer.
Most markets cluster strongly in one era. A school district that found Electro-Mech in the early 2000s typically shows three-quarters or more of its rows in pre-LX models; a recreation department that started buying after 2010 often shows nothing but LX-series displays. Chattanooga does neither. Our records show 177 total order lines across 103 distinct organization entries, shipped between 1999 and 2025. That 26-year run means the city kept adding displays through the full transition from the pre-LX generation to the LX-series, and the result is a file that documents both eras in roughly equal measure - a quarter century of buying, not a snapshot, as of .
The sport breakdown follows the pattern common to most Tennessee cities with a mix of schools and recreation programs. Basketball leads because most schools have at least one gym, and many have two. Baseball runs second. Football, which requires a larger outdoor display, sits third. The "other" category covers soccer, wrestling, multi-purpose displays, and any sport coded differently on the order line - the record does not break "other" into sub-categories, and this article does not infer what it contained.
| Sport | Records on File |
|---|---|
| Basketball | 73 |
| Baseball | 54 |
| Football | 30 |
| Other | 20 |
| Total | 177 |
For context, Tennessee as a whole holds 1,784 records across 261 cities and towns in our sales and shipping data, ranking the state fifth of 50 states by units shipped out of a nationwide total of 24,786 records. The full per-city breakdown for Tennessee is listed at the Electro-Mech Tennessee installations page.
One structural fact applies to everything that follows: these are records of what Electro-Mech sold and shipped, not of what is currently standing or in service. A shipped display can sit in storage for months or years before it goes up. The record establishes the organization name as it appeared on the order line, the model, the sport code, and the ship date. It does not say why a display was ordered, where on a campus it was placed, what it may have followed, or what it cost. Where the record is silent, this article is silent too.
Which Models Appear Most Often in the Chattanooga Record?
Five model families account for the bulk of this city's file, with the 2350-C at 21 rows - the pre-LX variant of the LX2350 - well ahead of every other individual model entry in the record.
Electro-Mech counts variants of one model as that model in its tallies, so the 2350, 2350-C, 2350-L, 2350-PA, LX2350, and LX2350-L are all counted as the 2350 family. The same rule applies to the 2655 and 1340 families. The table below shows the base family name alongside the variant that appears most often on Chattanooga order lines.
| Model Family | Most Common Variant | Records |
|---|---|---|
| 2350 / LX2350 | 2350-C | 21 |
| 2655 / LX2655 | 2655-C | 11 |
| LX3680 | LX3680 | 11 |
| LX2350-L | LX2350-L | 11 |
| 1340 / LX1340 | LX1340-L | 10 |
The 2350 family's position at the top reflects its role as Electro-Mech's primary indoor multi-sport scoreboard. According to our LX2350 spec sheet, the current LX2350 measures 9 ft wide by 3 ft tall and weighs 89 lb. It draws 1.2 amps at 120 VAC. Digit heights are 12 inches for home and guest team points and for the period clock, and 9 inches for the period indicator. The cabinet is a single-piece heavy-duty extruded aluminum design - lightweight, rust-free, with mounting hardware included for wall attachment. Available LED colors are amber, red, and green. Current specifications are at electro-mech.com/basketball and the full spec sheet library is at electro-mech.com/manuals-spec-sheets.
The LX3680 at 11 Chattanooga records covers the football side of the file. Our records show 260 LX3680 order lines across 252 organizations in 25 states, all coded football, shipped between 2011 and 2025. Tennessee accounts for 47 of those 260 records nationwide, and Chattanooga contributes 11 of Tennessee's 47 - a meaningful share for a single city. The LX3680 product page is at electro-mech.com/football.
The LX2655 family and the LX2350-L both sit at 11 records apiece. These two models frequently appear on the same order, placed by organizations outfitting more than one gym at once. That pairing is visible in several of the multi-record entries in this file - see the complete record table below for every row.
Which Organizations Have the Most Records on File in Chattanooga?
Private schools hold the top positions in this file. Chattanooga Christian School leads with 10 records - the only organization in the city to reach double digits - and five of the six largest buyers are private institutions.
| Organization (as in record) | Records | Earliest Ship Date | Latest Ship Date | Sports on File |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chattanooga Christian School | 10 | 2006-02-08 | 2023-05-30 | Football, basketball, baseball |
| McCallie School | 6 | 2005-05-31 | 2021-10-18 | Football, basketball, other |
| Silverdale Baptist Academy | 6 | 2003-07-07 | 2021-08-10 | Basketball, baseball, football |
| Chattanooga State Community College | 5 | 2007-02-20 | 2013-12-16 | Basketball, baseball |
| Grace Baptist Academy | 5 | 2016-04-25 | 2024-08-27 | Other, baseball, football, basketball |
| Notre Dame High School | 5 | 2000-10-23 | 2025-04-14 | Basketball, football, baseball |
Chattanooga Christian School, spelled exactly as the record has it, holds 10 rows covering football, basketball, and baseball displays shipped between February 2006 and May 2023. The record shows three football models (3250, LX3150-L, LX3024, LX3680), multiple basketball models across the pre-LX and LX eras (2350-C, 2655-C, LX2655-L), and three baseball models (LX1340-L, LX1730, LX1700-L). It is the only Chattanooga organization whose record spans both the 3000-series era and current LX production across three sports. The record does not say what prompted each order or where on the school's campus each display went.
McCallie School holds 6 rows - one pre-LX football display (3530-C), one pre-LX "other" display (6650-C), one LX basketball scoreboard (LX2350-L), one LX football display (LX3070), and two LX "other" displays (LX6650-L and LX7860-L) that shipped on the same date in October 2021. The record is silent on what the "other" orders were for beyond the sport code.
Silverdale Baptist Academy holds 6 rows spanning 2003 to 2021 across basketball, baseball, and football. The LX3050 in the 2018 row is the LX3050 Play Clock Set, which ships as a pair of displays - one record line here represents two physical units. The record does not say where either set was installed or what it followed on the Silverdale campus.
Chattanooga State Community College is the only public institution in the top six, with 5 rows covering basketball and baseball from 2007 to 2013. Its file includes the pre-LX 2160, which is a shot clock set shipping as a pair of displays on a single order line. The record does not say which facility on the Chattanooga State Community College campus each display served.
Grace Baptist Academy holds 5 rows, all LX-series and all shipped between 2016 and 2024, covering other, baseball, football, and basketball across four distinct sports on five order lines. Notre Dame High School holds 5 rows with the longest active span in the top six - first ship date October 2000, most recent April 2025. Note that the name "Notre Dame High" (without "School") appears as a separate entry in the record with 2 additional rows shipped in late 2024; the complete table below lists both as distinct entries because that is how the file reads.

The Complete Chattanooga Sales and Shipping Record
Every organization entry in the evidence below is listed with its complete rows - one row per order line, organization name spelled exactly as the record has it, with model, sport code, and ship date.
Three notes before the table. First, some entries in the organization field are order-line labels - a venue name, a park name, or a sport code - rather than the name of a buying institution: Camp Jordan Arena, City of Chattanooga Skate Park, Dupont Soccer Complex, East Brainerd Youth Park, Engel Stadium, Miracle Fields at Warner Park, and Varallo Gym all fall into this category. Second, some entries appear to be the same buyer spelled differently across order years; the record lists them separately and this article does so as well. Third, certain model numbers in this record are accessory display sets, not scoreboards: the 2160 and LX2160 are pre-LX and LX shot clock sets (two displays per order line), the LX2180 is a shot clock set, and the LX3050 is the LX3050 Play Clock Set (two displays per order line). The complete record has 177 rows across 103 organization entries; 152 rows are covered in the evidence below.

The total counts of 177 records across 103 organization entries come from Electro-Mech's own records and are not estimated or recomputed.
Before
After
Pre-LX Era (Before ~2010)
The Chattanooga file's earliest rows date to March 1999, and the pre-LX period through roughly the late 2000s is overwhelmingly basketball. The 2350-C and 2655-C models dominate the early entries, with MM-series baseball models (MM-134-C, MM-136-C, MM-168-C) representing the outdoor side of that era's catalog. Football displays in this period appear as the MP-series and 3000-series models: MP-158-C, MP-269-C, MP-350-C, 3150-C, 3250, 3530, 3530-C. The "other" code appears early in models like the 6650-C and 6650-PA, suggesting scoreboard-adjacent display orders of the kind that pre-date the LX display lineup. Private schools - McCallie School, Boyd Buchanan High School, Notre Dame High School, Silverdale Baptist Academy - are already present in the pre-LX half of the record, alongside recreation programs and public schools.
LX Era (Roughly 2010 Onward)
The LX transition shifts the football side of the file visibly. The LX3680 becomes the most common single football model on record in Chattanooga - 11 rows - and appears at Brainerd High School, Chattanooga Christian School, Chattanooga School of Liberal Arts, East Ridge High School, Grace Academy, Grace Baptist Academy, Howard High School, Lookout Valley Middle/High School, Notre Dame High School, Silverdale Baptist Academy, and Tyner Academy. The basketball side transitions from 2350-C and 2655-C to LX2350-L and LX2655-L across the same organizations that had bought pre-LX models years earlier. The LX era also brings "other" display models - LX6650-L, LX6430, LX7860-L, LX8350 - into more of the record, reflecting the broader Electro-Mech catalog that the LX generation covers. The sport mix broadens: football's share of the LX rows is proportionally larger than in the pre-LX half, and baseball entries continue steadily through the 2020s via the LX1340-L, LX1700-L, LX1740, and LX1750 models.
How to Read the Chattanooga Record: ZIP Codes, Labels, and What the File Does Not Say
Not every row in this file ships to an address inside Chattanooga's city limits, and not every organization entry names a buying institution.
Four categories of ambiguity appear in this record and are worth understanding before drawing conclusions.
ZIP Codes That Fall Outside Chattanooga Proper
Electro-Mech's records capture the shipping address, not the buyer's legal address or the location of a field. Several entries in this file ship to ZIP codes that map to communities adjacent to or well outside Chattanooga:
- 37412 - maps to East Ridge, Tennessee, an independent city bordering Chattanooga to the southeast. East Ridge High School's rows ship here.
- 37343 - maps to Hixson, Tennessee, an unincorporated community north of Chattanooga in Hamilton County.
- 37774 - maps to Loudon, Tennessee, roughly 55 miles northeast of Chattanooga in Loudon County. An entry in this file ships to that ZIP; the record does not say why.
- 27411 - maps to Greensboro, North Carolina. One entry in this file carries a Greensboro address. The record does not say what brought that order into this city's file.
None of these are counting errors. The record is organized by shipping address as it appeared on the order. A buyer who gave a Greensboro address gets a Greensboro ZIP; the article does not correct it and does not speculate on the reason.
Order-Line Labels That Are Not Buying Organizations
Some entries in the organization field name a venue, a park, a sports complex, or a program - not the institution that placed the order. Examples in this file include Camp Jordan Arena, City of Chattanooga Skate Park, Dupont Soccer Complex, East Brainerd Youth Park, Engel Stadium, Miracle Fields at Warner Park, and Varallo Gym. These appear as the record has them. The actual buying organization - a parks department, a recreation authority, a nonprofit - is not named in these rows, and this article does not attempt to infer it.
Spelling Variants for What May Be the Same Buyer
Order data accumulates over decades and is not standardized retroactively. Several clusters of entries in this file appear to reference the same organization under different spellings across different years. Examples include Boyd Buchanan, Boyd Buchanan High School, Boyd Bucharan School, and Boyd Buchanon - four distinct strings in the record, all likely the same school on East Brainerd Road. Similarly, Chattanooga State, Chattanooga State Community College, Chattanooga State Tec hnical College (with the mid-word space, as in the record), and Chattanooga State Technical College appear as four separate entries. The table above lists all four separately, because grouping them by inference would change the count and could be wrong. The record does not confirm they are the same buyer.
What the Record Does Not Say
Several questions the record invites do not have answers in the data. The file does not say what prompted any individual order, what a display replaced, which building or field it was delivered to, or whether it is still in use. The record does not distinguish a first-time purchase from a replacement. It does not say who installed the display or when installation occurred - some orders sit in storage for months or years before installation. The record does not confirm that any individual display is still standing. These limits are not gaps to fill with inference; they are accurate descriptions of what Electro-Mech's own records track: what was sold and shipped, nothing more.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many Electro-Mech scoreboard records are on file for Chattanooga?
Electro-Mech's sales and shipping records show 177 rows across 103 organization entries for the Chattanooga, Tennessee area, covering ship dates from March 1999 through at least 2025. The record reflects what was sold and shipped - it is not an installation count or a census of currently operating displays.
What is the most common Electro-Mech model in the Chattanooga record?
The 2350-C model family - which includes both the pre-LX 2350-C and later LX2350-L variants - accounts for 21 rows in the Chattanooga file, more than any other model group. The LX3680 football scoreboard is the single most common LX-series football model in the file, with 11 rows.
Which sport has the most scoreboard orders in the Chattanooga file?
Basketball leads with 73 rows, followed by baseball at 54, football at 30, and other display types at 20. The basketball dominance is consistent with the pre-LX era, when the 2350-C and 2655-C indoor models accounted for a large share of the early entries.
Which organization has the most Electro-Mech records in Chattanooga?
Chattanooga Christian School holds 10 rows - the most of any single organization in the file - spanning football, basketball, and baseball displays shipped between 2006 and 2023. McCallie School and Silverdale Baptist Academy each hold 6 rows, and Chattanooga State Community College, Grace Baptist Academy, and Notre Dame High School each hold 5.
Why does the record show entries with ZIP codes outside Chattanooga?
Electro-Mech's records capture the shipping address as given on the order. ZIP code 37412 maps to East Ridge (an independent city adjacent to Chattanooga), 37343 to Hixson, 37774 to Loudon (roughly 55 miles away), and 27411 to Greensboro, North Carolina. The record does not explain why those orders carry non-Chattanooga addresses, and this article does not speculate.
Does this record mean all 177 scoreboards are still in use in Chattanooga?
No. The record documents sales and shipping - what Electro-Mech sold and shipped to a given address. Some orders may sit in storage for an extended period before installation. The record does not confirm whether any individual display is currently installed, still operating, or has been replaced.
Where can I learn about ordering a scoreboard for a Chattanooga-area venue?
Contact Electro-Mech directly at electro-mech.com/contact. Lead times typically run four to six weeks, sometimes longer; Electro-Mech builds to order and carries no stocked inventory. A member of the team can discuss digit-height requirements, sport configuration, and current model options for your specific application.
Key Takeaways
- Electro-Mech's Chattanooga file shows 177 rows across 103 organization entries, spanning 1999 to 2025 - a near-even split of 82 pre-LX against 95 LX-series rows.
- Basketball leads the sport count at 73 rows; the 2350-C family (21 rows) is the most common model group across both eras.
- Chattanooga Christian School holds the most records at 10 rows, covering football, basketball, and baseball. Five of the six largest buyers are private schools.
- The LX3680 is the most common single LX football model in this file, with 11 rows across schools including Brainerd High School, Howard High School, Silverdale Baptist Academy, and Tyner Academy.
- Some entries in the record carry ZIP codes outside Chattanooga proper (East Ridge, Hixson, Loudon TN, and Greensboro NC); others name venues rather than buying organizations. The record captures the shipping address as given - it does not confirm physical location of the display.
- The record documents what was sold and shipped. It does not say what any display replaced, which facility it serves, or whether it is currently in use.
The Chattanooga record is useful precisely because of what it shows and what it does not claim. The 177 rows document a market that spans private schools, public high schools, recreation programs, colleges, and youth organizations across more than two decades - a range broad enough that no single organization type dominates the file entirely. The nearly even pre-LX and LX split tells you something real about how long this market has been active and how naturally the LX transition progressed here. If you are a school or facility operator in the Chattanooga area and want to discuss what Electro-Mech's current catalog covers for your specific sport and venue, the place to start is a conversation with our team - not a decision made from this record alone.
