Athens Marietta Memorial MARCS talkgroup

[W8UU]

Marietta Memorial Hospital built a free-standing ER in Athens. I know they have their own MARCS radio and talk group. Does anyone have the info to program that into a scanner? I'm not in the immediate area enough to listen for long periods of time and radio traffic is infrequent.

MMH Marietta and Belpre campuses use 59945. I would guess the one in Athens would too, but you might want to use ID Search every once in a while if you don't hear them on this one.

Athens does not share the Belpre/Marietta MARCS talk group. They have a new one.

All I know to do is listen for traffic on all MARCS talkgroups to see if you hear them on an unknown one. I'll do the same, but I don't know if it would affiliate with the Washington County towers, so I'm not sure I'll hear it.

I'll be in Athens in a few weeks and I'll see what I can find out.

 

[JethrowJohnson]

Oh, my fault. I even noticed your location was Wellston, but didn't even think of it and ASSumed you were close enough to check. I'm sorry. But the only way to find new channels is to look for them yourself and submit what you find to the database, because that's mostly all the database has to go by.

I ran Discovery Mode all day, and I just finished logging every channel I got, but none of them was a hospital in Athens County. I think I'm just too far away. Sorry I couldn't help more.
