Spencer,

Nice job on the Netcast.  I'm just out of range in Eastern Montgomery County
to p/u Chuck County. So, just wanted to say thanks.

Andy

I was at the tornado very early on.  What a mess.  A little late, but I am
trying to rebroadcast the fire/sheriff audio to the web for a while.

http://beta.stationdirectory.com

or go to http://www.radiodestiny.com

Look under the broadcaster 3 stations for Charles County.

Let me know if it works.  I am off to bed now, it is 0430 in the morning.
If it works, I will leave it up tomorrow for a while.

Spencer

     If in fact it is a repeater operation, it is an alligator...all mouth
and
no ears due to the repeater input frequency sensitivity threshold set so
high.
In my opinion, that is a self defeating purpose for a repeater operation.  A
repeater's coverage should be I/O balanced.  You just know probably one
result
from this disaster....another big buck 800 mhz. trunked comm system.
