4th of July Information

[BFIFM790]

Hey there everybody...


Any one hit up any of the parades or fireworks shows in Bergen County with Close Call.

Looking to see what frequencies were used....especially in Ridgewood and in Ridgefield Park because of the size of their celebrations.


Thanks for the help in advance!

I was in Ridgewood at the fireworks and they uszed SPEN4 almost exclusively during to entire event. A new temporary frequency was 462.4500 but I couldn't get a good PL. Was anyone in Ridgewood besides me?

Hey Justin,


How have you been?

Ridgewood Emergency Services...they stay on SPEN 4 or use their radios as well? If so what freqs?

I guess Police ops were on TAC

Thank you again!

 

[jaymatt1978]

From what I could make out, the actually patrol at the fireworks used SPEN4 while the cops doing trafffic control were on the normal dispatch frequency. Of course the fire department used 154.3100 exclusively!
