Any date on Union County SC Fire Going To 800mhz

[pitheus]

I have seen the 2 talk group channels listed for Union in the database for fire and its 2nd channel but as of today 8/10/23 nobody here in this county seems to know a damn thing about transition to palmetto25 800 system. We still on VHF for all fire traffic.

The 2 fire talkgroups are for interoperability currently they are still on vhf. they are their for mutual aid.

But who we gonna talk to, non of the fire depts have 800 equipment and neither does 911 dispatch have it in any of their consoles except for City, County, Jonesville PD and EMS which have been on 800 a couple years now. Fire reception on VHF is horrible with the noise and poorly maintained walkies and truck units.

All I know is that they are valid talkgroups which is why they are in the database. If you want more info speak with your department
