I'm relatively new to the Forum (and brand new to the new scanners/systems), so forgive my stupidity. I've been a public service listener for over 60 years (I don't think there was ever a time my father didn't have some sort of public service radio in the house) but the new systems are getting the best of me. I have an HP1, 436 and 536.
In the old VHF days I could hear the Ohio Turnpike from Westgate to Eastgate (great advanced weather notification). Now, not so much. I'm hearing the East some, and West very little. I have programmed in the sites of Castalia, Cuyahoga, Lincoln Park (Campbell), Neapolis, Shalersville, Wauseon and Westgate. (I don't know if I only need the closest site to me [Lincoln Park] or more than what I have) I've programmed the TGID's for OSP District 10 and District 3.
Have I gone about this all the wrong way or am I close to the right way...as opposed to the Wright way?
Thanks, Bob
(remember...forgive the stupidity!)
