Fire frequencies Lincoln/Grimsby/Beamsville

[pilot99]

For a while now I get nothing on the 155.9100 which should be the Grimsby fire channel. Anyone know anything since the fire departments merged?

• Grimsby has no PL tone
• Lincoln uses 141.3 PL
• Beamsville would be Station 1 in Lincoln
• West Lincoln uses 189.9 PL on 155.9100 MHz if those are missing from your programming.

Grimsby, Lincoln, West Lincoln, Pelham Niagara Falls and St. Catharines Fire Departments all went to the new 700 MHz Regional radio system.

Lincoln FD call just paged out on 155.910 for a burning complaint. Emphasis on paged out, no operational apparatus radio traffic heard.

Thank you all! I see Sentinel has been updated and loading my 436 now.

Just as a follow-on, West Lincoln just paged out for a gas line rupture, assigned "TAC 5" for those of you monitoring for activty. The truck (Pump 1) apparently did appear on 155.910 although out of range for me and was advised to switch to TAC 5. Whether this is a simplex frequency or a repeater input I've haven't looked into.

West Lincoln and Grimsby are on the Niagara Region P25 P2 system - Paging and Dispatch is analog and digital simulcast.

Been that way for a few years now, at least...
