<div dir="ltr"><div>ok here is the rdt file. I set up public service on one side amateur on the other. I downloaded a codeplug for the ontario region for a tryout, installed smoothly. So use to analog I would've understood a csv file heh. alright got it now. Feel free to add any tri-state area digital machines I missed. I'll be using the base antenna on occasions to. Dont know how accessible further repeaters might be on digital, but if its anything like nextel direct without a repeater then coverage will be very interesting. <br></div>Thanks in advance.<br></div><div id="DDB4FAA8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2"><table style="border-top:1px solid #aaabb6;margin-top:10px">
