Everett fire channel 3 / fireground C

[havmedic26]

hey! I was on scene at the Everett fire today. They were using "channel 3 - tactical", but my agency did not have that channel, nor did I as a member of metrofire. Their portables and chelsea's portables displayed it as "LZW fireground C" Anyone know what freq they were using?

As Gordon provided is correct. For the Other MBHSR Channels
you might want to browse over to the SNE WIKI

I wonder what LZW Stands for ,
Mabye L is Zone L
ZW ?? Hmmmm

What type of Radio was it.
