I've noted from the database 155.370 is the Statewide Inter-Agency frequency for NY. My question is, for those familiar with our dispatching in NJ, is this frequency utilized the same way we use SPEN 1 here in NJ? If not, is their another that agencies use?
Those not familiar with what SPEN 1 is here in NJ, it is our inter-agency frequency we can use to call neighboring jurisdictions and put out alerts such as wanted persons/vehicles, road closures, agency requesting mutual aid for a fight or other disturbance, etc..... this frequency is simplex and is utilized statewide. It is a mandatory frequency that is monitored at every dispatch desk, and must be available in all emergency vehicles in the state if needed.
