First of all, I want to apologize for such a (likely) stupid and (hopefully) simple question. I'm currently in Donna TX and from what I have researched here on RR, it looks like pretty much all police traffic is now using LGVRRS. It's a little confusing though as on that page, Hidalgo County...

It looks like we are having a little bit of propagation this morning that I'm guessing may be a sign of tropospheric ducting due to the cool front making its way into northern Texas today and tomorrow. I am definitely receiving Milam County SO which uses a NAC of 403. I'm in Fort Worth and it's...

Ok guys and girls, the title is real. I spent a little time last week researching as much as i could about Jeff Davis County Texas and what frequencies i could find to plug into my radio for our upcoming Boy Scout trip in a few weeks. We are headed to BTSR in Jeff Davis county. I always plug in...

New Radio System Will Allow Better Communication For Odessa' Saw this story. Anyone have any info on it? Are they going solo like Midland did, or is the, what seems to be, un-utilized, Wide Area Network being abandoned? Or is the network going to convert to Phase II? The impression is...

I am new to this forum and radio coms in general, so please bear with me. I have had this RadioShack PRO-668 for a couple of months, and when I purchased this thing right out of the box I gave it my zip code and was receiving all of the trunking frequencies under the sun. I am also using the...
