[Scan-DC] Virginia state police

[Andrew Clegg]

Have you tried turning the radio off and back on? When I had a BC396, it would sometimes lose lock on the control channel after a long time of not being power cycled. Turning it off and on would fix it. But, this was on the Arlington 800 system, not VSP. Worth a try if you haven't done it already.

In fact, a trooper said so.  There is even a 10 code for too much radio use.  I do remember VSP having practically constant radio chatter on the Division 2 and 7 channels before going to the STARS system.
