OHP Lowband

I was at Xenia for hamvention and noticed OHP cars are sporting lowband antennas. They must still use some lowband along with 800?

Right now, I'm not sure all that the Ohio Highway Patrol cars have, but a few years back, they had one of their cars on display at the Ohio State Fair. I recall it having numerous antennas and a spokesperson I talked to advised they have the ability to send & receive on just about all the various frequencies in use.

Most likely the PCTEL CB antennas on the cruisers.

OSP lowband is dead for voice comms.
