East STL Co

[longdistancelistener]

Ive programmed STL county into my BCD 996t. (Fire Dept). Most of the central and north come in pretty well but for some reason all Im getting from the East co stuff is the reply once a unit is on scene. I never hear the dispatch. Double checked and disp tgid is in and unlocked. Im listening from the I-270 and Page Ave. area. Any suggestions anyone?

Thanks!!

East Central County

Ive programmed STL county into my BCD 996t. (Fire Dept).

I believe you are referring to East Central County Fire Dispatch. They dispatch for the Olivette, Richmond Heights, Clayton, Maplewood, Webster Groves, and Shrewsbury fire departments on 151.055 MHz with a DPL tone of 412. They respond and communicate on 153.860 MHz with 123.0 PL. They come in loud and clear in High Ridge, MO.

This should help you out.

Good Luck,

jr, thanks for info. I do have all those freqs and tones programmed in correctly and unlocked but still only hear an occasional reply from "on-scene" never an actual dispatch. Not sure whats up.
