Fire Island National Seashore

[GM]

Hi Folks:

Just wondering if some of the local monitors can plug in 171.62500 $4F9 and confirm if this is a new Fire Island National Seashore freq. or not. I picked this up from Sandy Hook, NJ earlier and did not hear the normal conversations on 166.9000 $4F9 like I did in the past. Thanks in advance.

Thats a pretty great distance from sandy hook to fire island. Whats leading you towards that freq belonging to fire island?

45 or so miles across water is not that great a distance, especially when you've got an almost unrestricted line of site.

I seem to recall someone already posting the 171.6250 from last July, so I would say you are correct.

I just verified that the Fire Island National Seashore is using 171.625 $4F9. Sorry about the lenghty delay in verification. They don't appear to be extremely active even now.
