I just bought my first scanner in many, many years (i.e. since the days of each agency having their own frequencies) at Dayton Hamvention and have a question about how the Ohio MARCS P25 system works. I have the scanner programmed for my county and have been listening to that fine. With the tornados to my north in the Dayton area last night, I had a thought. Are all talkgroups broadcast throughout the state? So if I program in the talkgroups for another county, would I be able to listen to that county from mine outside of normal radio range? Or do they only broadcast the local county plus a few mutual aid and such?
I'm a ham, so I have some experience in ham DMR talkgroups such as Ohio Statewide which is available all across the state. I just didn't know how the Ohio system is set up.
