  5. FYI... that scanner is not a trunking scanner so you would not be able to pick up trunking systems. Also, RR is very acurate and is always being updated. If you need to confrim a freq, check the FCC License Databaseand search by Name(s) and/or location. If you want to learn about the county trunking system, check out the training power points on the 60 Control web site.

  18. Forgot about greenburgh, but It's still not very popular around here, right? And isn't Greenburg have a seperate fly car for it's ALSFR. In Winhall, It's the police officers themselves that are doing the ALSFR, they don't have an Medic or EMT just for EMS, they do it all.
  19. Both image and Info from http://www.banksvillefire.org/
  20. It's Great news for the Winhall, VT Area. Winhall Police and Rescue Department is the first PD in Vermont to provide ALSFR. Very Unique and very different from Westchester. Press Release From the Winhall Police and Rescue Dept. Facebook Page
