Medical Helo Freqs

[TXFirefighter112]

I've been all through the database looking at all FCC licenses in Dallas, Tarrant and Denton counties trying to find Careflite's frequencies but they do not appear on any of the pages. I have looked it up as Pub Safe Conv, Pub Safe Trunk, Bus Conv and trunk, state, even looked at telemetry even though I didnt really expect to find anything there.

You may want to lookup the hospital the helo is staged or lands at in the fcc database. At one time we had two helos accessible from two different hospitals and in the FCC database, there was no information about any of the frequencies for the hospitals being just for "helo use". So what I did was program all of the frequencies for each hospital in my scanner and just scanned and kept an ear out and it wasn't long before I found which frequency each helo worked off of. I had to program about 40 or so frequencies before I found what I was looking for.

Good luck with your search!
