Why do they need 800?
They are going to be rather disappointed in the coverage of 800mhz in that part of the county. Very hilly. Unless this is going to be a very tall tower with hi gain antennas and tower top amplifiers. I still ask myself the same question why Norfolk proper needs 800.

It shows antenna at 99.4 meters on the US 92 tower. That tower is 152 meters tall.
Antenna gain is 8 dbi on the license.

I will add this to the monitor list. It may be a tough go up here in Norfolk since its 800mhz and 20 miles southwest of me. Perhaps a road trip towards the tower may be in the works once it is turned up.

I used to hear the old Norfolk Fire analog repeater in Southwest Cuming County. You might be surprised how fair it will go.

Unintelligent question maybe...can the Unication G5 scan this system?


Struggling to scan the Omaha 108th Street site.

Newman Grove site has finally been turned up as of this morning. Madison Rescue and Tilden Rescue were affiliating to the Norfolk West 800 site.

I can hear it on my Pro106, decent reception, but strangely, I cannot hear it on my TRX 2 on a Omni X. up in the attic.

Talkgroups will be posted on another thread as I start seeing them and getting them identified.

Here are the details from Pro96com

Has the statewide system switched to Phase 2? I can still monitor it with my SDS200, however I'm trying to program a friend's Whistler WS1065 and I'm not receiving anything, but it is a Phase 1 only scanner. Curious if I'm missing something during programming or if everything is Phase 2 now?

At this time the SRS is not Phase 2.
