Good morning all, and happy veterans day.
I am getting back into the hobby after a 10 year break and have been having fun using a 75xlt that was gifted to me recently. I am getting some of the local traffic but wonder if I would be able to pick up much more activity using a homepatrol 1? Listening to Cincinnati would be a bonus but Kenton County police is my primary focus to include Kenton County police as well as fort wright and Fort Mitchell.
Would a home patrol 1 be a worthwhile upgrade or will I not notice much difference in the local signals that I receive with the 75xlt? I really like the 75xlt form factor as I can take it with me anywhere easily, it has decent reception with the stock duck and battery life is good. That said the hp1 touch screen interface really appeals to me. If there is another radio that works better in NKY please let me know as this would help cut down my research time.
Thanks in advance.
