Gentlemen, I am VERY new to radio ops, scanners, etc. and I am wanting some help please. I am a member of a local fire department here and am trying to figure out the freqs i need to program my own personal VHF/UHF radio and am wondering how to make sure they are the accurate INPUT and OUTPUT freqs. I have visited the freq database portion of this site as well as another website and also have searched the links to the FCC site. I have written down the, I guess, basic freqs that are listed but am wondering a few things.
First, we have two repeaters in our county. Are there any special freqs that need to be loaded other than the ones that are listed at the FCC site or here to use these? Second, How do I find out what freq is used to set off my pager? I know that we use only one freq for the county fire channel, but every station's pager uses different tones. How do I determine what freq sets off the specific tones for my department?
These are just a few of many I would like to find out. If any of you have some clues, answers, suggestions to this, please let me know. Thanks!!!!
