Need Help Receiving Troop G NCHP

[anelson5004]

I live in Cedar Bluff VA which is 2.5 hours from Asheville NC. I have Programmed Phoniex, Deep Gap, Jefferson, and Rich hill Sites which all cover Asheville. I am connected by an outdoor antenna on a Whistler TRX2. I have my trunking tables set to standard. If they need set to custom, I will need help with tables, as I have trouble with programming. Any help will greatly be appreciated. Thanks.

Unfortunately none of those sites remotely cover Asheville.
They're in Ashe county, which, like so many places in NC, refuses to contain a city with the County name in it!

Ok, Which sites do I need?

From Cedar Bluff you are highly unlikely to be able to receive anything that would be carrying any Troop G traffic.
The sites in and around Asheville are Meadows, White Fawn, High Windy and Clingmans Peak. Clingmans Peak would likely the "Closest" of those to you, but it's still probably 100+ miles away.

People (including myself) have told you on several occasions that the odds of you receiving any VIPER site at all from Cedar Bluff, VA are slim unless you have a very elevated location. Did you ever succeed in picking up traffic on a VIPER site from your location? As W8EMX said, even if you can receive a VIPER site, you are unlikely to hear anything from Troop G that far away.
