I'm getting decent reception on 155.97 WSP.. is it from eastern wa?

(it's a plane radioing down car speeds to troopers)

Heard it about an hour ago on I-5 in Seattle so no skip.

I occasionally get Kennewick putting out a broadcast from here in Olympia on F4. Yakima comes in sometimes in the background on F19

I've heard that on Ft Lewis VHF radio (at the MP desk), I think it echo's thru White Pass.

The WSP White Pass repeater on 155.97 is often heard in the Seattle area. If I remember right that site is called "Summit". I've also heard WSP dispatch transmitting on a remote base called "Pullman".
No idea which actual site that is coming from but that's the farthest VHF-Hi signal I've managed to hear from North Seattle.

There are all sorts of odd signal paths thru or over the Cascades. There is a spot along I-90 west of Easton that has a path to my location good enough for short contacts on 2 meter simplex.

And NOAA Weather Radio 162.400 from Stacker Butte sometimes has a better signal than the Canadian weather radio near Victoria. Sometimes the Canadian station has a better signal, and sometimes neither of them are receiveable here.

There's a 'State' repeater on Slate (SR20) & Stevens (SR2) as well.

WSP White Pass "Summit" repeater has a tone of 77.0 if that helps narrow it down.

I've been hearing them play with the Smokey on C2C regularly here and in Grant County.
