I live in New York but visit Kent county once a years to visit relatives. What is the best way to set up the MCSP system in bc 396xt or a HomePatrol to focus on Kent County ? What confuses me is that I don't see a site specific to Kent County.I see a set of talkgroups specific to Kent but not a site. What sites should I use to get the Kent County talkgroups ?

The database shows two MPSCS towers in the county:

3 (3) 014 (E) Cedar Springs Kent 866.26250 866.43750 866.93750 867.83750 868.43750a 868.93750c
3 (3) 015 (F) Cannonsburg Kent 866.15000 866.86250 867.36250 867.86250a 868.25000 868.86250c

I guess it depends on where you are going as to which tower will provide the best signal. You know you can click on the city name to get a signal footprint map.

Thanks I missed seeing the names of the county in the second column. Didn't know about the footprintmap.

Realize that it's used very little there, so don't worry too much about programming.

Most of what you will here is the state troopers covering the highway. Load the VHF stuff up and you will get a lot of action
