I have refrained from providing info here anymore, but this one subject I'll make an exception. All hospital communications now take place on the trunked system, each hospital has a channel(group) assigned to it. The ambulance selects that hospital it want to talk to and the conversation occurs as if you are calling another mobile radio or base.It is all listed in the database.

Most of the southern westchester agencies still use the cell phone while most of the northern westchester agencies use the trunked radio.
