We live between Worthington and Jackson Minnesota and was wondering does anybody have any info on Freqs for this area.?

The Maps show tower Sites all over the South-Western Minn local,? I'm using an 800 Mhz Commercial Grade 5 element Beam with a Low Noise Preamp for UHF path detection.

I think if there was something around this neck-of-the-woods, we would hear it??

Any Help sure would be appreciated. Anybody Trunking this system in the Worthington Area??

From what I can tell, SSP PD is part of the AMERA (?) system, and I believe that is digital??? I also think a Radio Shack Pro-163/164 is an analog only scanner, so I think I would need a Pro-197 scanner to listen to SSP... Correct? I don't want to make a $300 mistake. (One of the guys in Radio Shack this afternoon told me the only difference between the 164 and the 197 was the range! I went back to purchase the 164 tonight and a different sales rep told me I needed the 197 to listen to SSP as it is digital!

Please help!

Using the database and the MN Wiki I was able to figure out that this was Dakota County (West St. Paul officers). When the patch was taken off the dispatcher mentioned taking off the patch with LTAC-1. My question is, I thought that TG: 504 would be the talkgroup shown if something was patched to LTAC-1. I was doing ID Search and have LTAC-1 programmed in but at no time did LTAC-1 ID:504 receive (and the display only showed ID: 4304). I am missing something or is this how it usually works? ARMER is very new in these parts and this is one of the first patches that I have heard. Also...if it matters, I was using 396xt in display mode 2.
