I haven't heard Air Comm dispatch a Lifenet helicopter for a while on 155.235.....did they switch again, or is it my antenns ? Can anyone confirm the dispatch still being on 155.235 ?
I will throw this out there again, because there are quite a few people within monitoring range. Can ANYONE confirm that Air Comm is dispatching Lifenet helicopters on 155.235 ? I followed the switch-over from 155.265, and heard a couple of dispatches, but now I have heard agencies mention that the helicopter was dispatched...but no joy on 155.235......anybody ???
I can confirm they are no longer being dispatched on 155.265 in Albany, as it is our backup Medcom channel and we monitor it 24/7. Speaking with EMS personnel, they state they are being paged on the same channel as Mohawk Ambulance because they hear a lot of Mohawk traffic on their pagers.
just cause I live in Rome doesn't mean I don't travel or work in a different area. When I am in Rome I pick up Rural Metro Syracuse on 155.265. But since I work in schoharie county which is only 20 miles south of the Life net Glen station I am pretty sure I can pick them up. But thanks for the advice. And yes I still pick them up on 155.265 like stated before.
LifeNet-71 and Lifeguard-12 are definitely being paged on 155.235. This is the same frequency as Mohawk Schenectady, which I understand has been annoying for both Air Methods and Mohawk.
I don't know if you would ever hear them in your area but for reference the two new helicopters will be-
LifeNet 7-9 (Potsdam, NY), LifeNet 7-10 (Watertown, NY)
