2024 MOSWIN Sites/Talkgroups

[llzel]

Depending on your location. I forgot where you listen. It will not harm anything at all if you program a few extra nearby sites to expand your listening enjoyment. I live in SW St Louis city and can hear only three MOSWIN sites due to my low elevation. The city's simulcast, Weldon Spring and Imperial. But because of how trunked systems work I can hear troopers talk in almost every county south of the city and a bit less up north.

Amazing really because when I am in Laclede Co scanning on a good day I can monitor almost 14 sites in surrounding counties.

Good luck.

are you using an SDS100? Weldon Springs from south city is pretty good.

I can receive Weldon Spring on my SDS100 and my 396xt and 325p2. Overall i get better reception on the 396xt. That has been my go to scanner for years.

Due to my low elevation spot in the city I don't get a peep from any MOSWIN site outside of the three I get. There are three counties in Illinois just over the river from St Louis about 10 miles or so as the crow flies from me but with a Yagi I can only get minimal, off and on, reception of two of those trunked systems. Always frustrating.

I can't comment to Weldon Springs but not log ago I was at my daughters right near the airport and was able to get the Madison County simulcast on my G5 "IF" I watched where I set the thing. I was kind of surprised about that one. May have just been a good day.

I'm west of Forest Park and I get Monroe County well and no St Clair County with a G4

Is it coming from 3/23, the site in Columbia?

yes 4 bars on my G4 but St Clair 3/59 0-1 bar

Ya they show that Columbia site on the map going further north than the St. Clair simulcast, that's a little odd to me but even the map agrees with your results.
