Ok, that makes better sense. I'll scan both the 154.430 (using 100 and 110.9 PL), and HEAR (using 156.7 PL). I've tried using PL on the 154.295 Camano Island frequency, but it doesn't appear I-COM is transmitting a tone. Do you use decoding on the 154.295? Perhaps I don't hear it well enough for the decoder to work. I get a lot of intermod on that one frequency, and having PL would help a lot.
Thanks, Brad.
: Yes, and most of the fire districts are typically alerted simultaneously. Also, there are two antenna sites for the HEAR system, North and South Whidbey, with console remotes at the ER and in I-COM for paging. The hospital based ALS cars (only three of them that are strategicaly located on the island) are known as "Whidbey x" and the fire district BLS transport cars (most are retired cars donated by the hospital) are known as "Whidbey xx" which of course follows the station(s) assignments. The county EMS program is operated under the auspices of the hospital MPD.
: No, O.H.F.D. operates a F.D. response/transport unit known as "Medic 81" but it isn't always an ALS car (depending upon staffing that day).
