Gulf County Sheriff should be 460.500 (192.8)
Not sure on Calhoun County Sheriff but the FCC database has the
following listed. I'm sure you will find it if you scan these freqs.
CALHOUN, COUNTY OF, SHERIFF'S DEPT. KIK958 453.75000
CALHOUN, COUNTY OF, SHERIFF'S DEPT. KIK958 460.30000
CALHOUN, COUNTY OF, SHERIFF'S DEPT. KIK958 460.62500
If I was to guess, I would probably think 460.300 is the correct freq.

Gulf County has moved over to the State Pro-Voice System. See the states web page http://dms.myflorida.com/eits/publi...nt_radio_system_slers/third_party_subscribers
I don't know about Calhoun County.

I'm not sure if they moved over yet, I could be wrong. I know a few of the counties listed on the Third-Party Subscribers have not moved over. Okaloosa County is listed on there but has not moved yet. They were scheduled for 2009 but with the county tax cuts coming up for vote, many departments are re-evaluating there budgets. Okaloosa Sheriff was on the news tonight with concerns in his departments. I know the county will have to look at the cost of the new radios now that the county will be loosing tax payer dollars. The article stated all county agencies.
Below is a press release from Northwest Florida Daily News (09/01/06)
Officials in Okaloosa County, Fla., want to be able to communicate more effectively in emergencies by joining a statewide radio system. The system lets local and regional public safety groups communicate via a shared network statewide. However, the system must still deal with hurdles such as cost; Sheriff's Office Chief Deputy Mike Coup estimates that the cost to buy radio units for 265 deputies would be roughly $530,000. Also, residents will no longer be able to listen to the communications. Dino Villani, Okaloosa County's public safety director, said the county's objective is to include all county agencies in the state's radio system by 2009. Currently, emergency workers, deputies, and other county workers rely on a variety of radio systems that do not communicate with each other. Some agencies have already joined the state system, such as the Florida Highway Patrol, which joined in 2003, said Maj. Steve Williams of the agency's technology and communications division. Okaloosa County 911 Coordinator Sylvia Womack said it is not mandatory that agencies take part in the state system, but those that do will experience improved communications and radio reception. Meanwhile, the state government has already constructed the radio towers and infrastructure needed by the county to participate in the state system, saving the county $10 million.

I not sure either, I was just going by the web site.I know Baker County SO has made the switch here in Northeast Florida.
Not only would they be wasting money they would be signing on to a system that requires that the users sign a gag order prohibiting talking about it.
Users that will admit to it say the old Motorola system as bad as it was when in service was better than this EDACS, TYCO, Critical Communications, system.

Thanks for everyone input and help. If any one catches the right Calhoun SO freqs. and tones, I will watching the database for upates. 73's David kf4nga/wpsi815 Jensen Beach, FL

I would just like to see what it cost to be a 3rd party user on the system. I think that figure of $530,000 for radios for 265 seems to be a really low number. I would think that it would be about double that amount or more.
