| So today I'm hearing unit 1L90 testing a new repeater on 155.460. Doing multiple radio checks as he's driving around the area. Repeater is using the same PL of 110.9 as the current simplex setup uses. I'm trying to find the input freq.

For the last few days have been hearing radio repair reprograming the troop car radios. They are transmitting thru a repeater with the output on the normal Troop L 155.460 freq. However the dispatcher is just transmitting normally on 155.460 simplex without utilizing the repeater.
Also hearing a CW ID being transmitted periodically that I've never heard before. Callsign WQI456 which is for the transmitter located in Plainview.
Input freq is 159.0825 DCS 306. This freq is under a license that went into effect on 11/21/2025 WQWZ680.
Other freqs that are also listed under this license:
158.8725 158.9025 158.9175
Now starting to hear on-duty patrol units that have been reprogrammed utilizing the repeater for comms.

| Troop L Farmingdale now using a split duplex-simplex base repeater configuration on 155.460 KNAT249 . The base station intentionally bypasses the repeater's input frequency 159.0825 (DCS 306) WQWZ680 and instead communicates directly with mobile radios on their listening frequency 155.460 (PL 110.9). Being used by Zone 2 patrols now. Don't know if it will eventually be used for Zone 1. Will have to see. |

I have noticed today 1L41 on the input frequency. I imagine they are starting to program 1L radios. I wonder where the repeater input or inputs are located
