This is the current set-up which I verified this summer but have not seen 
published.  It is still in use but of  course there is now little traffic 
due to the season.  RadioReference and other sources are outdated.  I have 
also added some addition NPS info.

elected National Parks in the MD/VA area.
Note, all VHF repeaters below except Fredericksburg & Spotsylvania National 
Military Park
are P25.  400 MHz data links contain digital voice and data for simulkeyed 
repeaters and
cannot be copied on scanners.  Some of these systems are atop mountains and 
can be heard
at geat distances.  Note that NPS radios are programmed for frequencies in 
nearby parks
if needed.
