That sounds like a common voice synthesizer, used in many repeater controllers.

KQH-904 is indeed Licking County but not on 33.92 MHz. The county uses 33.86 and a bunch of VHF repeaters.

There are three Licking County departments that use 33.92: West Licking, Alexandria, and Monroe Township (Johnstown). Licking County 911 probably dispatches them and may be using the 904 calls.

The 33 MHz fire channels are hopping right now in southeastern Ohio.

40.0750 150.0 US MIL - reading grid coordinates

just as a public service for everyone, if ya ever hear grids called out, and the mood strikes you to investigate, this site is great for a simple plugin:

MGRS / USNG to Latitude and Longitude

Military Grid Reference System

legallandconverter.com

obviously its not easy to hear the whole thing, but a little research can help ya deal with partials too, especially if you know for sure if its local or if its skip.

Please don't misconstrue as implying anything here as i realize there are a multitude of reasons that would prevent you from doing so. Just thought id throw it out there.

That address may be in West Virginia, based on the address.

 

[marvinsuggs]

Thank u!

That address may be in West Virginia, based on the address.

That's got to be it but I don't see 46.140 licensed anywhere near St.Marys, WV

 

[W8UU]

I don't think its West Virginia. The accent is wrong.

The dispatcher sounds northern or mid-western. There is a Pleasant Valley FD in New York and in Maryland according to Google. No licenses on 46.14 but this dispatch involves another department responding *to* Pleasant Valley's mutual aid request.

I'm hearing 'mutual aid with Pleasant Valley' and an address on South Pleasant Road. Of course, no one ever uses an FCC call sign. Let us know if you find out more.

 

[GlobalNorth]

Aside from broadcasters, amateurs, and those concerned with legalities; does anyone even bother with FCC licensing these days?

 

[marvinsuggs]

Thanks W8UU I'll try to track it down. I think Tyler Co, WV uses 46.14 but they're several counties over. Also throw in the mix I heard a mutual aid response to Newport, OH, just across the river 🤔

Sounds like Randolph County, WV

 

[marvinsuggs]

Thank you very much

 

[GMB951]

Well no lowband logs for at least a year maybe longer the following came in this 8am thru 11.30am from the upper side of the band 35 thru 50 no id on them sounded like northern states mostly (EMS/FIRE)
46.360/39.60/45.080/47.040/47.020 ect

 

[W8UU]

On second listen, maybe they're saying "mutual aid to Pleasants County" and not *valley*.

Pleasants County is in West Virginia and is across the river from Washington County Ohio (Marietta) -- a huge user of 46.14 MHz.

So ... a Washington County Ohio fire department is providing mutual aid to Pleasants County West Virginia. That would make sense.

 

[W8UU]

Sounds like Randolph County, WV

Yes. That's it. That signal BOOMS when skip starts rolling.

ULS License - Public Safety Pool, Conventional License - WNCE371 - RANDOLPH COUNTY 911 - Location 1

Antenna site 3400 feet above sea level on Rich Mountain plus a 190 foot tower. 100 watts.

That's low band the way God intended it to be.
