Eastern WA, South of Spokane. < ![]() Note the freeways and traffic jams, and the build up of houses everywhere. :mrgreen: Sunday April 13. I would stick it in the 'commo site' thing but can't. |

How far south? Looks like a site I passed in Idaho just over the state line south of Pullman years ago, hwy 95 dropping down into Lewiston... The one on the right looks state patrol-ish Its how they built their stuff in years past... Thanks! |

That would be 154.845 for WSP; district 4/ Whitman county. It's around 40 miles south of Spokane as the elephant flies. There's some ham stuff here too. The background is the 'Palouse'; the default Windows desktop. (Looks more like it in late Spring). |

That's a nice place to listen from. Last time I was up there it wass all dirt/gravel. I could hear Oregon State Police from Hermiston clear as a bell. |

I could hear the 1610 monster from the rest stop on 395. |

I need to buy another HT. The only thing I had resembling a radio was an old MP3 player held together with duct tape. In the 90's I was on Mt Spokane and was able to bring up Wenatchee repeaters with a hand-held. About 180 miles as the seagull flies. |

I used to get into a repeater, the 147.140 machine near Plains, MT, from up there. But then when you are at 5800 ft., that helps! Time for you to get a new handheld! |
