How many Sites

[radioman1044]

Hello
How many sites or towers can use on the same system? I my area there are 3 close buy ( in about a 80 mile range), Should I program all 3? Or should I just use one of them?

Thank You

Hello

A system can have as many sites/towers as it takes to cover the area being serviced. Mountainous areas will have more than 'flat land' areas.

In my area there are 3 close buy (in about a 80 mile range), Should I program all 3? Or should I just use one of them?

If it were me, I'd program them all. You may find that you do not get good enough signals from some of them. But then again, you might go mobile and be closer to a site other than what you pick up from home.

Thanks very much!
I thought that was right to program them all in and it would pick up witchever tower was the closest.
