From the looks of this recent FCC data, it looks like the County FD is expanding all of their repeater channels to have ?countywide coverage. Per the 1998 radio info in the County FD website, they had 1 east repeater channel, 1 west repeater channel, and 1 north repeater channel. Does anyone have more info about this?
