Jackson County Illinois 154.040

Anyone know the PL tone for 154.040? Trying to get radios set up to listen for the solar eclipse.

The Database shows Type BM (Base, Mobile) so I suspect there is no tone and just carrier squelch. If you leave off a tone you’ll hear all the traffic. Some of the EMA Frequencies are shared by other counties and they don’t use a tone because there isn’t a need or a lot of traffic. I live too far away to know for sure. Maybe someone else that lives closer knows for sure if there is a tone on that frequency.

the database does not show a tone, so yep go carrier squelch (no tone).
