You will any be able to hear the above call signs if you are very close to the base. And if you are within LMR ground range and are equipped to monitor P25 trunked systems, I need some help checking out some frequency information I have on hand for Cherry Point and areas bases. If you have some time and are so equipped please contact here via the email address in the masthead.
