FLORIDA USAR TF-1 Frequencies Hurricane Idalia

[JimD56]

Miami-Dade Fire Rescue FL USAR FL-TF 1 has a 90-person team currently staged in Orlando.
When they move into the affected areas they will use the below-listed frequencies with the Repeater Freqs not yet available until they set them up.

If you live in the area just set your scanner to "Close Call" Range 406-413mhz and you will receive all the federal assets of USAR and Federal DMAT (Disaster Medical Assitance Teams) deployed near you.

Boat Teams will also be using Marine Channel 16 VHF 156.800mhz as necessary.

MDFR USAR FL-TF1 operates Motorola XTS5000 portables and will be on 412.850 141.3PL BOTH in Analog and P25 Digital Modes Duplex (Repeater) and Simplex (Talk Around) and at the BOO (Base of Operations) will be a bank of XTL5000s and Various APX's through the repeaters or stand-alone 35-40 watts.

I have also attached the Florida SARNET Map. ALL of the repeaters have generator backups.

Be Safe out there.

I remember heading north on 231 and saw tons of ambos heading to Panama City. Than I was on i10 going east saw fire trucks law enforcement to help out after hurricane michael went through.

If anyone in that areas got hit hard might want to try to listen to the 800 state conv freqs. I remember NWFL was using that for a few months.

Polk County is in Levy with their system 396 cow, and 8tac repeaters. They will be tied into Levy DPS by patch in the cow and mobile radio.

state EOC and one of the PSAP's occasionally used SARNET to talk to one of the task force teams, apparently there was a ham on that team and they used it as backup to the sat phones.

After this little trip of mine, i REALLY think the agreement between the state and the linked repeater owners is an amazing idea.
