listening via eDispatches.com tonight - Clark County Arkansas fire radio tests
1800 PM - Arkadelphia FD tone test - OK by Station 1
1849 PM - Clark County Sheriff Office tested multiple rural FDs - Alpine FD + Amity FD on "Alpine Repeater" - DeGray FD + East Clark FD + Gum Springs on some repeater (loud hum) - Hollywood FD + Okalona FD on "Okalona Repeater" - Gurdon FD + Whelen Kansas FD + Bierne FD + Curtis FD on "Gurdon Repeater"
there is the possibility that those FDs dont exactly match those repeaters - each entry at the website has a 35 second recording - each recording has a FD name - listening to each tape you hear - "Clark County Sheriff Office testing rural fire departments on XXX repeater" - the recordings do end up with various time stamps and they are ordered by repeater name - so it seems likely the dispatcher keyed up the Alpine Repeater first and then paged Alpine FD and Amity FD - but we cannot swear by it
maybe someone can check a map and see if those FDs are grouped correctly geographically
all messages seem to be analog - audio was clear
