When driving thru Mono County a few weeks ago, I noticed that the 2 state Dept of Water Resources channels (151.235 & 151.205) were being used as channels in the CRIS sites there. I'm not sure if there was even a DWR presence in the Eastern Sierra and was wondering if this was a local thing, or is DWR giving up on their VHF-Hi conventional system altogether? Back in the day, they were a fairly busy channel here in So Cal, but all that changed years ago and they went increasingly to Nextel PTT, and cel-fone based comms (per a radio tech I know). Now, I rarely hear anything on those freqs in the San Fernando Valley.
