ARES Repeater in Ventura County?

[ShawnInPaso]

Anyone happne to know what repeater(s) are being used by ARES in Ventura County applicable to the fire situation there?

I'd expect most activity to be on the PVARC linked system, which is the countywide system that ACS/ARES uses. The old countywide repeater, SMRA Red Mountain, has been quiet and is not holding a net. Since the fire has pushed down into Los Angeles county, LA-DCS should be having activity. I am not monitoring either system much (about six feet of coax short of success), but I heard activity on PVARC yesterday.

Thanks for the info, I'll check it out.

I heard LACo DCS activity from the Lost Hills/Malibu area on 147.270, the Mt McDill repeater yesterday (Friday).

Called in to net control and they confirmed it was being used for DCS ops. Not a lot of good activity like the fire freq's though.
