Does anyone know the Atlanta area Air Ambulance Freqs? I remember hearing that there were several VHF Freqs in use around Atlanta when they were not using the local fireground Freqs. Thanks, Rick.

Well I can't really speak for any dispatch frequencies or anything that would be strickly related to the specific company but you should be able to hear them talking to Atlanta Approach/Departure and such.
Clearance: 118.1
Approach North: 126.9
Approach South: 127.9
IFR Arrival North: 127.25
IFR Arrival South: 118.35
Departure North: 125.7
Departure South: 125.0
Listen for something with a Lifeguard callsign. Chances are good they will not be IFR but prior to them taking off of the Hospital or any place within the Class B they will have to call up Clearance and talk to one of the approaches.

Hi Rick....
http://www.radioreference.com/modules.php?name=RR&action=codes&code_id=919 has a meager listing of medevacs in Georgia.... I had to search to find the "company" freqs used by the medevacs in Kentucky.... most of these outfits will use a freq registered to the service as a dispatch and en route freq..... they frequently use the base freq of the hosptial to which they are en route as a local control for patient reports, etc.... you might also try the various medical freqs to see if you hear them (there is a distinct sound nmade by the inverters)then see if you can find the same voice on other freqs. They will talk to units on the ground on the local fire/ems fres...

A vast majority of the Air Ambulances use either Nextel or SouthernLinc. What you may want to monitor is the County/City fire department dispatch and/or fire ground channels as most of the Air Ambulance services have radio's programmed to talk to them on.

also, try out the mednet frequencies... sometimes you'll hear them use that too.

true, only a few counties use simplex systems. clayton uses simplex. i hear them talking about Air1 and Air 2 on Clayton PD, Clayton Sheriff ( Encryption Disabled ) and Clayton Fire/EMS.
my job uses Southern Linc. we just upgraded from simplex radios.

A few of the AA's have Motorola Spectra's on board all programmed up with the various TRS's, mostly fire channels. I have heard Air Rescue 1 on the Cobb County system in the past.

our radios are programmed for all of the metro atlanta counties and some of the more further away counties still within our mission capable range.
