Ok it's Winter time, and we have had a mild winter, but the towing companies are always a good listen on the scanner. Below is some of the confirmed frequencies I have. If anyone has any others please reply and include PL tones if possible. There are tons of companies out there, but searching for the frequencies can take forever.

Indy towing 150.890 PL 192.8
Sids towing 150.0815 PL 162.2
Zores towing 150.845
Interstate towing 157.420
AAA 856.3375 PL? I have not heard any traffic on this for a long time.

Davis Towing (Rushville) 152.285 PL 186.2
Recovery One (Franklin) Ch1 151.835 PL 91.5
Ch 2 151.715 PL 162.2

Any others around Central Indiana please post.

I had my car towed by Hix a while back, and rode in the cab with the wrecker driver. He had a Kenwood mobile, and it sounded a talk-permit tone when he keyed up, so they are probably on one of the LTR systems.

Are they using a repeater? I realize why you posted what you did, but im curious if there really is a repeater.

hey Scott Tim is confirming that Greenwood towing is using a Repeater. I wonder why they don't have a PL tone on there repeater?
