yup
734 am (local) today - heard via eDispatches.com call log today - morning tone test for "Airport Fire" - page was labelled as "BullheadAirport" in Mohave County - just the dispatcher and tone was heard - the airport fd apparently answered but was not heard via eDispatches - the dispatcher then told Oatman Fire to standby for their morning test and a 2 tone pager set was transmitted - nothing more was heard as the tape recording ended (typically they max out at 1 minute)

Wikipedia tells us that the Bullhead Airport does have their own FD (2 people on duty 24/7)

Checked the 734 am Broadcastify tape for Oatman Fire but heard nothing - maybe should be 154.0475 instead of the listed 154.7475

RRDB says that Bullhead City dispatches Oatman Fire

there is no Broadcastify feed for Airport Fire

Anybody know what freq "Airport Fire" uses? Could not find any info at RRDB nor in FCC list of freqs nor in RR Wiki. Does Bullhead City dispatch Airport Fire?

Bullhead City FD gave up the airport in 1997 when Mohave County Airport Authority decided to form its' own Fire Service - Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting [ARFF] service. Last time I heard, the department has six full time firefighters.

Did you look for Laughlin/Bullhead International Fire Department [their formal name]?

I Know this is an older post but I did hear activity on this frequency today, it was two units talking to each other, I was far away and there was a bit of static but it was ARFF units for sure.

The last time I was on BHC Airport property I did hear the ARFF units using 152.4350 as the repeater output and 157.695 as the input.
