Looking through the database, I see Clarkson, Leigh and Howells VFD's with 3 different frequencies. I can receive Howells, albit rough copy here in Norfolk.

Can somebody closer to Colfax County tell me if Colfax County uses each frequency to tone out each of those towns, or does Colfax use a common frequency for all towns. So far all I have had heard at this point is Howells.

Each dept was toned out on their own freq last I knew.

When I was younger, pager test was 6 pm Friday nights. I don't know for sure when they test now, as that was about 20 years ago

When I moved from the area about a year ago each department was paged out on their own frequency and they talk to dispatch on that channel. They can switch to each other's channel but there wasn't a common channel and the database was up to date at that time. The pager test were still done around 6pm same time as Cuming county.
