For the last 8-10 years, I have been using Walker/Illinois site as it was the closest and I got every TG on the list (Besides Kingston PD/FD & Ulster PD who only use Port Ewen)
I moved recently and in this apartment can no longer hit it with a stock antenna.
I am now forced to use Mt Beacon site. Everything comes in fairly clear however I am noticing the lack of a few TGs on Beacon.
Hyde Park PD
New Paltz PD & Campus PD

I am sure there a few I am missing a few others. It confuseds me because Poughkeepsie (Right next door to the above mentioned TGs) , both town & city come in clear as a bell just like everything else on Beacon site now
This is disappointing but my real question is - Is this on my end somehow since I am in a less than ideal setup now, or is it just that Beacon site just doesn't simulcast those TGs I mentioned? Kinda like how Kingston PD/FD & Ulster PD are only on Port Ewen site?
Not sure if this helps but the way I figured this out is that I kept one radio tuned to Walker and one tuned to Beacon and as bad & unreadable as Walker is now in the new apartment it still comes thru nonetheless and I can see the ID. At the same time, nothing comes over on the Beacon radio.
