[Scan-DC] Stars Info

[WB4IGU at aol.com]

I am hearing the state police on my  PRO-96 for northern Virginia area on 
the new stars system here in  Strasburg,VA. @ Interstate junction 66 with 
Interstate 81.  I  also am hearing Richmond channel 1 headquarters but don't 
know how it must be  being repeated on the hogback mountain repeater they are 
loud and clear here  better then when they were on 159.  I use to only hear 
Richmond  on 159.  only early in the morning  or during inversions I guess 
but  now it is 24/7. I am only hearing Richmond channel 2 sometimes like late 
 night so it must be direct off the Thornburg VA repeater system. I also am 
 hearing both Culpeper channels whereas I wasn't hearing Culpeper east  
always.  Also I am hearing the tac channels no matter how far away  they are I 
can hear them really well both sides of the conversations so for me  the 
stars works great. I did hear the VA State Police Chopper from  Richmond at 2AM 
night before last still using the old repeater  but Culpeper was answering 
them on the new stars system.    Joe

Listening to my BC785D, I seem to no longer hear (I use to) any VA  State 
Police (VSP) east communications (154, 159, etc.).

Did VSP change  to new freq and I missed it?
