An answer for Tier4GEVO -
Your radio is not the problem. I have a stationary unit connected to a "firecracker" antenna. My truck scanner uses a transit version of a skate antenna. I have been home and gotten only static on some signal calls. Other times, it seems the engineman is holding the radio phone a foot away. And in some cases they are not calling signals consistently. (160.230) I have NO trouble hearing the RN dispatcher when he or she is on 161.370.
I have been at Romulus and found out about a train coming only when it sounds the whistle for crossings.

That NB is turning east at Plymouth right now: D738-12, with CSX 2684 pulling a steel coil car and 2 covered hoppers.
