Those are what I've used for the past 6 years or so; great copy from Westgate to Jackson (Exit 218)
I gotta admit I miss the old VHF system though... way less audio variation between sites.

Absolutely agree on missing the VHF, it was solid, and "always on," in this case with MARCS the scanner listener is dependent upon a radio affiliating with a TG on a specific site. Some are guaranteed where fixed radios exist, but some sites are transient and have only occasional affiliations.

I updated the Wiki to show the sites:
I noticed your TGIDs were:
17152 430 D TP EAST Ohio Turnpike East Ops Law Dispatch
17168 431 D TP WEST Ohio Turnpike West Ops Law Dispatch
17184 432 D TP ETAC1 Ohio Turnpike East TAC 1 Law Tac
17200 433 D TP ETAC2 Ohio Turnpike East TAC 2 Law Tac
17248 436 D D10-ATG? OSP District 10 ATG? Law Talk
17264 437 D D10-EVT1 OSP District 10 Event 1 Law Tac
17280 438 D D10-EVT2 OSP District 10 Event 2 Law Tac
28432 6f1 D TP WTAC1 Ohio Turnpike West TAC 1 Law Tac
28448 6f2 D TP WTAC2 Ohio Turnpike West TAC 2 Law Tac

My OSP Turnpike FL shows Turnpike East Ops as 51590 and West as 51591 for openers.
Have these changed since Sept. 2021 when I last drove the Turnpike or did I totally overlook
something when I wrote the list back in 2018? Thanks!

I am very, very new a digital scanner however I can tell you that I am close to the Milan post of OSHP and I get them from the Castalia and Berlin Heights towers in Erie County, In fact, I receive transmissions all the way up to the Michigan state line. The Berlin Heights tower is probably better but I do not receive much from that tower, need a better antenna setup maybe, just using the antenna that came with the radio.

Hope this helps.

Sorry, that’s the legacy system.

I only added the box to the Wiki with the MARCS IP Sites.

I always hate deleting other users work in the wiki, but it’s time to be updated.
