I'm trying to get a Broadcastify feed up and running for the THP Lawrenceburg district. I have a spare scanner now because Franklin's city fire department has gone Big E.

What TACN tower site in the Lawrenceburg district is going to be easiest for me to receive here in Franklin? The database shows sites in Theta, Thompson Station, Centerville and Lawrenceburg. But as I'm letting the scanner cycle through, it's only picking up full-strength signals from Franklin and somehow Savannah (unless the database is mislabeled). Not hearing any THP District 7 chatter when it pulls Savannah, as expected though because Hardin County isn't their district.

If you live in Franklin, you're going to need an outside antenna to pick up a reliable Lawrenceburg site. The Crestview site (152.0950 CC) and the Lynch Hill site (769.25625 CC) are probably the two closest sites to Franklin that will have a consistent Lawrenceburg radio affiliated to it.
The Lawrenceburg THP Main Dispatch talk group is TDMA so you'll need a Phase II capable scanner to receive it.

Thanks! Giving that a try now. I do have a generic HAM radio mobile antenna that I have sticking out the window now to help.
