Reminded me of my days working avionics in Hueys back in the sixties. About sundown vhf low skip would start, and I would listen to California state troopers for an hour or so. RR database doesn't have 36.975 for anybody. Anywho just wondered if any of yall know who this can be. Probably skip to SE Alabama from somewhere. I'm gonna scan CB and see if skip is...

I am totally blown away that I am picking up that system from this distance (see map). Is this typical to receive a P25 P1 system this far away?

I have tried this on the programmed channels and I recently duplicated my efforts on the VFO sides. I do not appear to have any issues receiving 70cm at any... Read more View article »
