I recently lost the ability to receive Fx County on the G4. I am still receiving all my surrounding counties just fine. I am wondering if anyone else locally (Fairfax City) has a G4 and are experiencing anything strange with Fairfax. I have checked everything on this pager and only get Out Of Range. All my other scanners are just fine.

Tangentially related question -- I've been playing with extended range system programming on the G4. I programmed Fairfax and it's fire/ems talkgroups. The G4 is telling me I'm receiving Site 1/2 which seems right) with about 1-2 bars. However, I'm not hearing anything.

Are the Fairfax Fire/EMS Phase 2? The RRDB doesn't say they are but it's been wrong before....

EDIT: Please disregard -- something was not right in the programming -- I just pushed the config to the G4 again and it's working fine now. To be clear, I'm listening to Fairfax VA on my G4 with a RS 800 Mhz handheld antenna from just south of BWI airport.... I continue to be amazed.
