Illinois Pro 96 Files

[cdenton]

I will be driving through your fair state (straight through on I-55).
Does anyone have any Pro 96 files they'd be willing to send me?
It looks like your digital is just getting set up ... true?
In Michigan, it is mostly the State Police that patrol the freeways ... same for IL?
Does the ISP use mobile extenders with known frequencies?
Anything at all you think I should know?

Thanks for any help!

If you go to ILL Data Base and click on ISP that will help you with freq....
You can from time to time see a county sheriff along interstate.....
I know in LaSalle county you can see the sheriff in I 80 and I 39...Snowbird
