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. Kerwin |

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. |
