Until recently there was only the one node at his apartment. While you 
were able to hear it no problem, unless you were close or had a dish or 
yagi antenna you probably not going to connect. Since hooking up the 
repeater on 889 elm st. most of elm street can now pick it up and 
connect no problem.
