Pager tone frequencys and Indiana State police

[N9DVD]

I would like to program the Indiana State Police Severe Weather alert tones in to my Motorola radio on the 155.370 point to Point frequencys .. Would anyone know the tone Frequency for the the 2 tones they use ?

Also, does anyone know where I can get the pager tone frequencies for Fayette county EMS and Fire ?

Thanks

From the files of W9NES--Indiana State Police Severe Weather tones for Motorola Alert receivers on 155.370-- Tones are 592.5 hz and 802.5 hz.

That's good info W9NES. I didn't not know until recently that the State police even used 2-tones on the Point frequency. Is this used only for Severe WX? Any further info on this would be greatly appreciated. I received a call the other night from the DHS in Indy asking us if we still had the Point to Point frequency still. When I told him yes he said turn it up, and I will be calling for Johnson County shortly. I had to cut him short because I had several 911 calls coming in. We received a PI right after and I never turned up Point. I am guessing it was for some sort of monthly test. This was around 6pm maybe a week or 2 ago. Was anyone monitoring that test? What was it for?

THe 2-tones on Point to Point are used for Severe Weather primarily but I have heard them being used from time to time to indicate an Amber Alert. They are also used prior to the "Extend Test." Basically they set them off, and call each county agency in their district. I think there have been some other threads here in the past talking about the "Extend Test."
