6,

Do you know who has the contract to perform radio maintenance for the Sparta and/or Stillwater PDs? The reason why I ask is because, as j2 suggests above, it's quite possible that a relay system is set up somewhere nearby. I've seen one such constant carrier system set up in a town in Orange for it's fire radios - and - due to interference issues - they are using a a pair of frequencies licensed to the radio contractor (at the office address) instead of the pair licensed to the Town itself. The contractor is based two counties away. While both halves of the pair are only transmitting one watt a piece, the sites they are transmitting from practically cover the entire core area of the town.
