Georgia Forest fire Freqs

[zguy1243]

Seems to lots of fires burning in North Georgia and the the whole state due to the severe lack of rain. I observed a UH-1 Helo in Jasper Georgia today dropping water on fires. Does anyone have a good list of US forestry or related freqs for this area? Would be cool to listen to now. I dont have too many freqs for this sort of thing, im stuck in the milair bands most of the time.

Thanks,

Try these from the RR Wiki listed here, I have found many of them in use where the
fires are in National Parks or Forests and U.S. Forest Service is involved. Also try the local forestry freqs, go to RR the database, your state and county.

In my search for Forest Fire related freqs I have found 159.36 to be very active with unknown air units. I believe alot of these air units were at a long distance from me. Heard them talk about alot of towns in Alabama.
