[TrunkCom] 800 MHz antennas

[Jeff Kenyon]

Well, I almost never have used hte stock antenna in any new scanner i have
had, and with the Radio Shack telescoping antenna for scanners/ham radio I
can pick up a lot of trunked systems that I had difficulty hearing, and
some have managed to come in more consistently then what I would have
expected.  With there being no significant band opening today on my way
home Iw ill ahve to see what i can get.  Like I have said before on the
list the Detroit MPSCS subsystem is a pain to monitor with the LSM P-25,
but that is getting better with time so I don't know if they are tweaking
it around or not.
