<div>Hi John</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>If they are set the same as our UHF simocos down here, that will be a spare
freq now as 477.96875 is the new fire 1 freq.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>All our city trucks have a uhf to vhf xband to fire 1 hi (143.8250) in them
to activate when responding with volly brigades to enable our UHF simocos to
communicate with the VHF simocos.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I recall a while ago someone, maybe yourself mentioned the trucks going of
the run for Xband linking. </div>
<div><br>Regards
<div><br></div>
<div>Brendan</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Does anyone in the Wgton. area know if the Fire Ground
simplex freq. 455.1375mHz is still being used. The ‘program’ for the new
‘Simoco’ portables (packsets) had that as Ch.1 – Fireground 1. Ch.2 was
482.13125 Fire 2, Ch.3 489.66875 Fire 3, Ch.4 482.66875 Fire 4/Air Ops. Ch.5
483.04375 CIMS/Liaison, Ch.9 479.33125 Fire Rptr. (Vic. Uni. Bld.) Ch.13
479.21875 Fire Rptr.2 and Ch.23 492.5125 Simplex 1. This freq. list was
stuck on the wall alongside the UHF base radio in the ‘Command Unit’ at last
years open day for the ‘Life Flight Trust’. The new UHF H/H radios were
‘Simoco’ back then and I don’t think they were ‘digital’.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The new NZFS ‘digital roll-out’ in the Wgton. area is
almost completed, so it won’t be long before there is one more ‘emergency
service’ less to monitor.<o:p></o:p></p>
