Does anyone know which radio frequency does Emergency Service Adam 6 communicate? Thank you.

Yes, that's true, for initial assignments and coordinatation with other Special Operations Division and select Detective Bureau assets.

But, once the initial assignment is received, A6, along with most other Emergency Service units will switch to the radio zone covering the incident's address to coordinate with precinct units also responding. In addition, once on scene, A6, again, like most ESSs, can switch to a Tac channel to coordinate on-scene operations. There's no point in tying up a repeated channel when all you're trying to do is talk from the front yard to the MOS covering the backyard.

My point? To give such a curt answer to the OPs question does a disservice to the OP. If the OP asked what channel is A6 dispatched on, then yes, SOD is fine. But A6 can communicate across a wide range of department (and non-department) channels.

Sorry, but I saw nothing wrong with Ant's answer. He provided the most direct answer to the OP's rather vague question. The OP also hasn't been back since that answer was given three days ago for any sort of follow up, to which I'm sure Ant would've engaged him in further dialog.

Even if you wanted to pick nits and complain that Ant's reply didn't actually give the frequency that the OP requested, to that I would say that the database exists for that very reason. I see no need to spoon feed anyone when the information is readily accessible in the database. Otherwise, what is the point of the time spent by members submitting data, my processing those submissions, and maintaining the database in general? :unsure:
