OSP VRE's

[n8dhw]

Did a search before posting this but didn't find anything except older messages dating back to 2020. Does anyone know if OSP has discontinued using them here in SW part of the state like Butler, Warren, Hamilton Counties? I scan 465.550 PL123.0 which is what they have been using but haven't heard them for weeks now. So just wondering if they've ditched them and are just using straight up MARCS with the simulcast sites in SW Ohio?

Thanks

While I cannot speak to SW Ohio, up here in Northern Ohio (Cuyahoga County) they still use the VREs even with our simulcast site.

I'll second that, I heard them last month in Medina County.

They still use them in Central Ohio as well.
