Would you care to tell us what frequency you heard? Maybe we can assist.

Richmond City or Richmond County?

Strange and funny kind of sounds like you were listening to John Boy and Billy on "The Planet"

Maybe here's why they were "funny"

410.1500,151.410

410.1500 mhz. is a P25 frequency in the Edgewood, Maryland Arsenal trs you probably were hearing on a ducting condition. 151.4100 mhz. is not a valid FCC licensed frequency. The reason they sounded "funny" was because your scanner cannot decode P25 digital signals and it was not correctly tuned to 151.4150 mhz. which is a Region 2/5 state forestry analog repeater frequency. Region 2 covers the eastern/northern neck areas.
