I'm getting a NOAA station on 162.5500 MHz mentioning the Rappahannock River, Petersburg, the Potomac River, and the Shenandoah River. Anyone know the callsign and location of this station? Thanks.
I take that back, you may be hearing the Lynchburg site. On the KHB site most of what I hear is based around Washington, D.C., north to Philly and south to Charlottesville. However, they also give reports on the Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers.
I second on it being Lynchburg. I live in Chesterfield County VA and I can usually hear this station. When I listen it mention the same areas as you heard. Petersburg, the Appomatox and Rappahanock Rivers. If you hear it again, listen for the call sign.
That's interesting because the Lynchburg station is on a water tank in Madison Heights, not on a mountain or anything. It was barely audible in Nelson County 25 miles away.
I love it when you hear 3 or 4 stations on the same channel. Being on the coast up in NJ its not too unususal but thats pretty far inland for the usual ducting propogation. Good catch!
