I did search the forums for an answer on this, but couldn't find one. Sorry if it's a little elementary.
I don't actually live in the Bastrop County area, but I'm programming a Pro-106 radio for a friend who does. On the GATRRS page, I see two towers listed in Bastrop County.
There is a "Bastrop County" (Site 007 [7]) tower and a "Bastrop Simulcast" (Site 040 [28)] tower.
Is the first meant for Bastrop County talkgroups exclusively and the other tower meant for Austin/Travis County traffic exclusively?
If so, why would Austin need a repeater tower way out in Bastrop County??
Thanks for any help. And if you happen to have any other tips for programming in Bastrop County, please let me know. I hate programming "blind" if you know what I mean.
