Lake County Quad 1 Fire on 155.0850 ?

[Tim]

Greetings from WI...

I'm hearing the above on repeater with PL 141.3. I am pretty sure this is fairly new since i routinely hear Lake County traffic on VHF from home and don't recall logging this before. I heard a page for Zion FD in the last hour. I don't see anything in the database other than Cuba TS highways.

Could it actually be 155.0775?

Newport FPD is licensed on that and are in Quad 1, they could be using it to repeat the Quad locally.

I'm not getting anything on either from here in Hoffman Estates, but I just put a new antenna out today and I'm not sure what I can and can't get yet (I can get the regular Q1). Will keep an eye on it though.

Greetings again...

I finally got a chance to monitor it last night again and it <BOLD>is<BOLD> 155.0775. I didn't even think to check adjacent channels since technically 155.0850 would probably be considered a skip since I live in Milwaukee. It was coming nearly full quieting.
