Spent 5 days on the island and was listening to the freqs listed in the rr db. Heard the fd but never heard the sheriff. Are they on the uhf freqs or does the state 800 system cover the island?

I heard Hyde S.O. on VIPER in July, but had no (or at most a only a couple of hits) last week when I was there. I was listening to the Bodie Island control channel. I do remember having few Hyde Co EMS hits on VIPER.

I wasn't able to monitor the scanner at length either time, however.

The Ocracoke Island Viper site has been reported as being operational, and might be the best site - at this time - for monitoring Hyde County traffic if you're listening from Hatteras Island:

867.0625

( The above info was reported by Mike Carden on the OBX_scanning list on Yahoogroups on September 8th, 2009. Mike also reported that the Elizabeth City / Pasquotank Co site was operational, and confirmed other reports that the Kitty Hawk and Rodanthe sites in Dare County were operationa. )
