Kansas Highway Patrol Question

[ladyfyr2]

I have a Pro 95 scanner that I have been listening to Kansas Highway Patrol (Troop A, Wyandotte/Johnson Counties), as well as KCKPD, etc...on for several months. All of a sudden in the last several days, I can't pick up anything from the Highway Patrol, which is really the only one I am interested in listening to. I'm still able to pick up all of the other organization....KCKPD, KCK Fire, etc...just not the highway patrol. I've tried reprogramming the channels, but who knows if they are right, because I realize they mostly use Wyandotte and Johnson County. Any help is greatly appreciated!

KHP's primary channels in the Kansas City area are on the Johnson County system. Many of the metro troopers only use the Wyandotte 800 system when they are north, out of range of Johnson County.

Unfortunately, the two systems are not linked- a trooper working on the Wyandotte system can't talk to, or hear a fellow troop on the Johnson County system- even if they are only feet away from each other. Hopefully this will all be fixed when the state finally gets their wide area trunked system online (someday).
