And I'm sure that people from NJ would be interested in knowing the NJSP is operating down there. Nothing wrong with posting in the NJ, it's a story of interest.

Hats off to The NJSP for helping in releif efforts but you get the point.

You do realize that the frequency in question (852.8125) is 8TAC93, a national interoperability channel, right? This isn't some sort of unique or special frequency that they're using down there, it's a very common frequency for any US state or territory.

Ever hear any activity on it?, I am curious.
