Thank you.

 

[IStebleton]

Post your Friday findings, I'll be at the show Saturday and Sunday trying to get comms.

 

[icomR5]

This is everything I could find online and sort of gathered in one place. Will have a better idea once I land and hopefully get a chance to scan at the show. Good luck to everyone going.

What are the ISR channels?

What are the ISR channels?

I am not sure that was pulled from one of the lists online.

I am not sure that was pulled from one of the lists online.

ISR is basically military FRS radios - Civil Air Patrol cadets used them for a few shows back when they had a large presence. I haven’t heard them used in nearly a decade.

Anyone there or near there check this ltr system if it is still active or no longer in use, 453.150, 460.4625 453.1875. It has been over 10 years since last updated.

 

[KC8PBJ]

They're using Ohio MARCS group 58061 Countywide 1 as Air Show Dispatch for the event. Sounds like they have Medic units from various Miami Valley Fire Departments helping out.

 

[IStebleton]

The Vampire Jet was using 134.725 for discrete.

EMS was on Countywide 1, Law was on Law Enforcement 1 and Vandalia PD Tac 1. Fire was between DOA Fire and Vandalia Fire Admin. CareFlight was using their normal channels.

I found at least 2 more UHF DMR channels.
452.725 CC3/TG12/SL2 Unknown
452.725 CC3/TG11/SL1 Medical?

Going by the numbering system, TG 11 should be Emergency Ch. 1, and 12 should be Facility Ch. 2. Good catch on the Vamp.
