I'm in southwest Dallas. Scanning: Dallas Fire & PD; Dallas SO; just about all of the Dallas County suburbs that are on conventional systems. Also the Carrolton, Denton County, Garland, Irving, Lewisville, Mesquite, NE Tarrant County, Grand Prairie, Arlington, & Dallas local govt trunked systems. Don't get consistent reception on Richardson system; terrain & signal strength. Fort Worth is also currently out of range unless a different outside antenna makes a difference; that will have to wait a while. Also monitor: Careflite; TxDPS; Dart PD; railroads; news media & traffic helos; Ellis, Johnson, & Kaufman County cities on conventional frequencies. Have a few others, like Plano, programmed for when I'm across town & within listening range. Occasionally, I visit friends out in Stephens County & have cofigurations set up for both enroute & at that area for my BC246T & BCD396D. Using several other scanners in addition to those two.
