Somerset County Frequencies & Misc. Info.
A note, Gentlemen, on the PD Frequency for Pittsfield, Maine: Not only does the PD use this Frequency its also home to the FD & Public works(Hiway, Water Dept. & transfer Station). PD & Fd are dispacthed out of Somerset S.O.
Pittsfield currently having trouble hearing & calling Somerset & Somerset will sometimes have trouble hearing Pittsfield. As of this posting no one knows where the trouble is, i.e. weather its on Pittsfield's end or Somerset's end or at the repeter site, which I think is on Eaton Mtn. in Skowhegan. Pittsfield PD likes to think it may be the radios in the crusiers & may submit a budget request for new radios in either 2006/2007. I'm not sure & am only guessing at this point.
Another Frequency used around here is 155.400 That is assigned to Sebasticook Valley Hospital used by SVH ambulance, Hartland/St. Albans ambulance & Newport Rescue(Newport, Penobscot County, Maine) & also has been used by Corinna Ambulance when responding to calls in the Newport/Hartland/Pittsfield area. Corinna Now dispatched by Penobscot Sherriff & Mayo Hospital in Dexter.
BTW, I'm a new Member to these boards so bear with me as I get used to things.

P.S. the Listed Frequency of 154.325 for Detriot Dispatch is actually Somerset County North ( SVH ambulance can be heard on that frequency too.) Detroit FD. has been out of service since early summer due to the FD being reorganized & moving into a new firehouse. Pittsfield, Newport, & other surrounding Towns have been covering Detroit's calls for sometime as mutual aide. Detroit FD is not expected to be back on line much before Oct./Nov. 2005 at the earliest.
