We have one VHF LTR TRS in the Cleveland Metro Area,
tons of UHF ones. Also one 900 LTR TRS that I can
think of. One UHF LTR uses one frequency on one site
and two on the other. I mostly hear the Ambulanc Co
on it but rarely do I hear anything else.
Plus it seems that alot of private ambulance companies
use LTR.
