I was out of town for work for a couple of days.  I must say I am intrigued by
this response.  I have not yet heard any ops that correspond to the things you
are hearing (even though you are appaerently hearing ops from this end of the
state).  I did hear a pair of agents the other night (some time over the
weekend, I think) discuss the area of Rt 309 & US 202 (Montomgeryville,
PA...there's a big mall right at the intersection).

What is most interesting is the fact that you are on the other side of
Pennsylvania and it doesn't make any sense that repeaters there would be linked
with repeaters in Philly.  If there's a lurker on the list that can add any
insight in to this, feel free to contact me off list.  PA is several hundred
miles across (east-west) making this a very strange situation.

According to some other local monitors, 169.800 is not active at this end of
the state.
