I can see that alot of agencies in Larimer County have migrated over to the state DTRS, but the FCC ULS also indicates that there are still a great number of agencies in the county on conventional radio systems. Does anyone have a more complete list of the conventional frequencies and assignments for Larimer County, Fort Collins, and CSU? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I belive CSU is digital.

A lot of analogs in the database, look at the top of the screen here. Click me

I found this odd. In July I was in Larimer county and heard the sheriff talking to Loveland PD. They must have some kind of patch through with the Larimer county sheriff because Loveland is digital.Boo!-Poltergeisty :-0

155.130 remains LCSO Primary (officer involved shooting yesterday was all on this freq)
155.670 LCSO
154.085 Firenet
155.385 PFA Station Paging
155.340 HEAR (or EMS North)

PFA, PVH Amb, CSP, CDOT, FCPD are DTRS

LCSO, LCSAR, Vol FD's etc are VHF.

What else are you looking for?

Thank you. I thought of using it as an added signature. Which is acctulay one of three, the third is hidden further. Sorry can't say how. There's someone here however who really dose not much care for my added signature. :lol:

Here’s something else kind of funny. If you put the mouse curser over the user online statues dot near my user name it says something interesting.

Larimer County conventional

It may be a typo-154.385 Firenet(fire & Search/Rescue
Also,Airlife 911(med chopper) uses its vhf 153.785,not only when it is airborne from its base in Greeley, but also when it arrives at Poudre Valley Hospital, in Ft Collins.

AL911 uses Weld 153.785 (Fire-A) as it's primary and 154.145 (Fire B) as secondary. They typically switch to Larimer County EMS North 155.340 when involved in operations in Larimer County. Otherwise it's FERN 154.280.

Other channels used in the past include Larimer FireNet 154.385, Berthoud/Loveland Fire VHF 154.010, Estes Fire 159.405.

Larimer county conventional frequencies

Are the airlife 911 primary and secondary frequencies using different ctss tones, to seperate from the fire activity?

No. That would be self defeating. AL911 was moved to the VHF fire channels since the old EMS channel 155.4000 was retired when Tri-area ambulance moved to the fire dispatch TG on DTRS.
