How far

[steveh552]

Just curious how far from Columbus their 800mhz public safety system can be heard. I have been told that they can be heard in Newark, also been told only as far as RT. 310 from I70.

310 and 70 is where it usually drops off for me (sometimes it lasts to 158). A couple of weeks ago I was able to get it from Heath, but that was highly unusual.

Thanks for the response. I was thinking I would be pressed to hear them here in Newark.

Just SE of Marysville is where I start to pick them up. That is using my 396 with the RS800 antenna. I would think thats about the same distance.

Thats about the way my setup will be, Handheld with a 800mhz antenna.
