Don is correct. The most activity you will hear on the Suffolk trs for FD comms is from the FM's.

Check the database on this site or the frequency list on my site for the talkgroups.

County wide dispatch is on 46.46. But as Don stated, some departments use their own VHF or UHF freq instead of 46.46.

Check the database for the other county wide fireground freqs.
