[Scan-DC] Arlington PD?

[JohnMNash at aol.com]

Listening to the Arlington Public Safety System can be frustrating depending 
on your location.  I live less than a mile and a half from the county line in 
Falls Church (on Westmoreland Ave near Kirby) and the Arlington's signal comes 
in weak, broken, and scratchy.  This is amazing since the City of Falls 
Church PD is on this system.     

I hope when they go digital that the radio technicians boost the signal in 
North Arlington and Falls Church.

I easily heard Arlington fire calls on 154.130 MHz while sitting in one
of the upper rows at Byrd Stadium in College Park MD last April. The
radio was a Bearcat SC180B with the rubber ducky.
