| Post subject: | Washington State Parks |
Just looking for a confirmation here ... We are having a family get together later today at Potholes State Park just south of Moses Lake and was wondering about their frequencies. I had 151.280 that was used for simplex park operations. This runs with CSQ on the tone. Has anyone else seen other frequencies used? Here in Moses Lake I hear them on WSP/Ephrata signing in as "Parks xxx". Thanks for the help! |

151.28 is the only freq that the state parks use on a routine basis. Their radio's have access to local and state stuff. DNR State, WSP state, and some marine freq's if near the water. |

I've heard 151.280 all over the state. For maintenance and stuff. The commissioned rangers will come up on WSP 'area' for L/E type comms. |

They used to be on DNR common 159.42 quite a bit in the past, don't know if that's changed |

If you're listening to WSP and you hear "Parks ###" those are the rangers I believe. "Forest ###" should be the federal national forest law enforcement. |

The only thing I can add is that earlier this year in Oak Harbor, I picked up a reference sheeet which lists State Parks as 151.280 and also 151.295. As my wife and I have traveled I have only heard Park Rangers on 151.280 and the local WSP Detatchment frequency for drivers checks, etc. I have had some Rangers tell me that they have the local sheriff's department frequency is their radios as well.

And yes, when a Park Ranger goes onto the WSP frequency they refer to themselves and are called by "Parks" ###. ### is their actual badge number, just as WSP uses the badge number. Wayne |
