151.505 East Tennessee

K4ZXT · Apr 28, 2016

Over the past few days I've heard an ambulance service using 151.505. So far I haven't been able to decode a tone on it, but my Icom will only decode PL, so I'm guessing they're using a DPL.

I've heard them mention Medic 1, 2 and 3 and heard that one was transporting to Methodist Medical in Oak Ridge.

That being an Itinerant Business freq, and commonly used by both PHI, and AEL it could very well be one of them, most likely AEL setting up a new base, or at least comm site.
If you start hearing Helo traffic let us know.

I've actually been monitoring the frequency because I know I've heard AEL on it before. However, I haven't heard AEL on it recently. These are just "Medic 1" "Medic 2" etc. It does sound like a repeater output as it's a very clear signal.

Morgan County EMS is 151.4975 I don't know if that would be it.

AEL is Air Evac Lifeteam. They commonly use this frequency when they establish a new base before getting a licensed frequency.

PHI is one I don't know about.

Petroleum Helicopters Inc.
PHI, Inc - The Total Helicopter Company
The single largest licensee for Air Medical Services in the USA. They are however now moving towards more and more DMR, so if you hear that on itenerant freqs, and decode it and its medevac helos etc.... It could very well be PHI. PHI holds the licenses for IU Health LifeLine, Southeast MS Air Ambulance District's primary helo operators, and at least 25 other medevac helos nationwide.

PHI has a air medical base in Monticello KY and Morgan County is in their coverage area
