Government Bridge at Davenport/Rock Island

[timkilbride]

Does anyone know the Marine channel/frequency used to communicate with boaters/ships/barges to/from the government bridge tender?

160.305(AAR 13) is bridge to/from train communications.

TIA,

Tim K.

Never fails. After the posting I did some more searching. Here is what I came up with:

All locks monitor and can work 156.65 MHz (Ch. 13) and 156.7 MHz (Ch. 14). Ch. 16 is the authorized call, reply, and distress frequency, and locks are not permitted to work on this frequency except in an emergency involving the risk of immediate loss of life or property.
