BASE). I am in Hendersonville on Sumner/Davidson line.

Back to the basics.
#1 Did you buy the NXDN and what scanner are you using?
#2 You are not going to hear 32 air miles away on an inside antenna.
#3 Did you drive up to springfield and test your programming?
#4 Are you using the latest data from the RR Database?

In Hendersonville I don’t think you will even pick up the whitehouse site

I updated a lot of info on this site a couple weeks ago some control ch changes too if you don’t have the latest rr download in sentinel you may be off a bit too

But 32 air miles is a bit for this system with an inside antenna at that

I’ve got a discone 40’ in the air and can barely pickup the whithouse site and some of the waverly site
I’m near downtown Charlotte

From west side of Murfreesboro with a Comet GP-9 at 35 ft fed with LMR-400 primary (2M/440 Ham) I get about 60% of White House and a bit more from Springfield. With regular scanner antenna about 10 feet below, nothing. They seem to be well adjusted on power to prevent interference to other systems outside of the jurisdiction.

Due to those limitations, that is a main reason that White House Community VFD uses TACN for its tactical/fireground operations. Much better coverage in the areas they serve. Currently still dispatched on the D7,.. For now anyway. They get TACN deep up into Kentucky on mutual aid runs, and all throughout Sumner etc. Like other users of that D7 Greer run machine,.. I would be looking for big changes once contracts are up.

Yep see my post above dickson will most likely be moving to the tacn around March when contract is up with Greer I believe early testing will begin before that
They are going to have to put up 2 towers they already know
