Home Patrol II works very well in Macomb Co. as well. However, it sounds like a transistor radio. The speaker must be 1".

This statement is incorrect and misleading.

There will be locations and conditions where it appears to be working. Home Patrol can't deal with simulcast issues. Missed transmissions is one of the simulcast problems. If all you have is a home patrol, there is no way to know what you are missing.

Presently the SDS100 and SDS200 are the only scanners that will reliably receive simulcast systems. Out of the BCD396XT, BCD996XT, BCD325P2, BCD996P2, BCD436HP, BCD546HP, and the WS1088, the SDS100 and SDS200 are the only scanners that will receive the Baltimore Co MD south site where I live. You will not be making a mistake with the SDS scanners to receive a simulcast system.

I have the BCD996P2 installed in my van and I pick up the BC South Tower with no problems at all. I travel over by the USCG yard and Key Bridge all the time from Monkey County. I also get up to Golden Ring and still pick up the south tower with my radio in my van. Using a mother moto antenna in the middle of the roof made for the 700/800band.
