I'm a regular listener of the Jo Daviess County Public Saftey Feed. Fire/EMS is paged on 155.82 (233.6 PL) Looking through the RR DB and the ULS I see that every FD in the county has a repeater and/or a seperate freq. Since there is never any followup or updates on incidents from the dispatch center (JDCSO), I believe once the FDs are toned out they switch to there repeater for dispatch traffic. I am no where near close enough to confirm or deny this theory, would anyone in/near Jo Daviess County be able to help figure this out?

I've been listening to JDCSO Feed for 3 months now and never heard any fire agency on there repeaters
I'm not sure about Illinois, but I'm in Grant Co, alot of the departments here use Mabas Fireground Red when mutual aid is involved. I'm assuming the same probably holds true for Jo Daviess
Yea. Every department I know of uses FG-Red for fireground ops. But the freq listed as countywide dispatch is only used for paging FD/EMS
Have you tried all of these Freqs?... These were passed down to me from a friend that way.
Those are not in the database so it may be worth a shot. Im not close enogh to monitor them.
patmcc24 - any chance your friend might have PL/DPL information for 151.220, 151.3775 and 156.135? Inputs freqs for 151.220 and 151.3775 would be a bonus since neither repeater is currently in the database. Thanks!
I have them just have to find where i wrote them down
These were put in service approximately 1- 1.5 years ago as what i was told... I never actually looked at the RR Database on this one
Thanks for the tone for 151.220 (Fire East repeater, per patmcc24's source); all other tones were already in the Radio Reference database.
I'll submit this to the database, but still lacking a confirmed repeater input frequency. Also missing a confirmed input frequency and tone for the reported Fire West repeater on 151.3375. Is anyone able to help with either of these?
Those frequencies are still active I have them programed in my mobile radio and I hear them most every day.
PL/DPL information for these freqs?

I may take a ride that way see if i can figure it out
Yeah same here, I here them pretty much all over southern Grant County, I start drfting north of Lancaster than I usualy don't here it that far north. I have a 50 Watt Kenwood and I can occasionaly hear Rockford fire from up here when the conditions are right.
Still working on the PL's for this .... weather has not been my friend for climbing the tower and putting a new VHF Yagi to point in that direction.... Have 4 new antennas to increase VHF north and East of me as well as 2 850Mhz Yagi's for help with Stephenson Co. IL & Scott County IA also.
