I think it will vary on that one. Here in New England we have:

National Guard - VHF High
US Army - VHF High
FEMA - VHF High
Civil Air Patrol - VHF High
USCG Aux - VHF High
US Postal Svc - VHF high

Nothing in UHF

What Frequency did you find it on ?


Which Federal Agency would use PL Tone 118.8

Thank You.

If you're just receiving the PL and not hearing voice, I have heard of people getting interference w/ that PL from the 120 Hz hum of AC electric current.

As a side note, some scanners see 131.8 or 136.5 Hz tones where DPL is in use.
