[Scan-DC] Howard or Anne Arundel county?

[oldsdoug at hotmail.com]

John,

A search in the MD real property database http://sdatcert3.resiusa.org/rp_rewrite/ turned up a Coca Cola Drive (note spelling, and this one is two words) in Howard County (but not AA).  From that I would guess that Howard would provide both... however!  I know in at least one area here in Montgomery, near the PG line, PG fire company 41 is actually first due, running mutual aide... that could possibly be the case out there, if an AA station is actually closer... but in the case I mentioned, 41 is actually dispatched and controlled by Montgomery, ie it's still Montgomery's jurisdiction because it's in Montgomery County.

Now, I just had a look at radioreference.com and apparently for the sake of police communications, Howard is divided into Northern and Southern districts - I'm not familiar with the area so no idea which one you might be in, but then within each district, there seem to be 4 or 5 beats.

Hope this helps to solve a little of it.  If you can figure out whether it's northern or southern district, you could always scan those talkgroups and call in a fake bank robbery!  :)  (On second thought...)

Happy holidays!

Doug
