The owner of the scanner has a telescope antenna and listens to the county as 
the furest repeater . 155.925 - 155.970 Mcs.
I just got mine fixed  and use 
without a cover. The problem doesnot show up on the 2 meter. Only the 
neighbors :(
I did convence them for me to put a notch filter on theit scannet centered at 
148 Mce and a 18 db drop at 4 meg bandwith! Hope that works!
I didn't notice where you're located and if you look at WV maps you'll find 
Beckley near the souther part in Raleigh county!
Normally on my scanner I listen to 440 repeaters in about a 100 mile range 
with a TV antenna turned vertical.
Well that's enought and keep scanning! :)
