I only can get what the open bands give me :) I am picking up site 27 (700mhz) for slers p25. It reverts back to 851.000 weird though.
700 mhz is very weak where i'm dsdfl is unable decode anything but will keep monitoring

I'm also getting Miami FMs (Y100) up here at one time it overpowered Tampa's WMTX

I’m picking up Indian river p25. Have you try to get Polk county p25?
I did see 853.55 pop up but it was too weak to decode anything it could be polk or baker county.

I saw pretty much every step (.0125, .025 etc) in the 800 MHz band was filled with RF on my fmp24 window

Didn't monitor 700mhz much cause the noise floor for that band was kinda high

Signals seems fading now..

Bands are open again.

Wednesday morning was just crazy. I was getting scanner traffic from all over the south, but my biggest surprise was on FM. From my living room using my radio with its 16 inch built-in antenna I was picking up KTEX 100.3 Mercedes Texas, which is in the Brownsville Texas area. According to Google, it was 925 miles away as the crow flies. Normally when I pick up stations this far away it’s during a sporadic event, and I only received them for maybe a couple of minutes at most but this time the signal was strong and consistent. I don’t know how long the signal stayed, but I picked it up for 90 minutes before I had to go to work.

@billy2047 not sure if you are able to see what you can get tonight. I'm picking up a few systems already just like last night.

Tonight from Largo, I am picking up VHF and UHF traffic from Georgia and the Florida panhandle. On the weather radio frequencies I am picking up a total of 18 different stations depending on which channel and which direction I point my radio in.
