I was wondering if anyone has any information on Mississippi’s State Fire Mutual Aid channels?
(SFMA1 - 154.16 is listed in the DB) however I’m aware that they are 4 channels. I am curious what the other 3 are.

I believe that they now use MSWIN as they have talkgroups there now. They are listed under Mississippi Insurance Department.

I’m talking about the conventional vhf channels from counties that haven’t switched to MSWIN. I’ve confirmed they are in use from a buddy’s fire radio.

I've been around the fire service in MS for 25+ years. 154.160 is the only Statewide channel I've ever known of. I've always wondered why it doesn't exist on MSWIN.

I'll agree with flametamer.... 154.1600 MHz Simplex is the one and ONLY 'statewide fire' channel. Down on the coast, we also had a Coastwide fire mutual aid on 154.2800, but 154.160 is the only thing listed for the entire state.

Yeah with MSWIN in full swing, not many watch the VHF unless specifically told it's in use.

I know not too long ago I needed some assistance and keyed up on the statewide fire channel you are talking about and nobody responded..people don't monitor it
These channels are not on a repeater. I think they were put in use for fireground and on scene communications.

They were all Conventional Simplex and Duplex (Base/Mobiles) for mutual aid. Every fire radio on VHF High had these in the plan back in the day. Every station radio had 154.1600 in it, though they may not have had the other 2. These were what you went to when you had to get multiple departments, especially out of county departments talking together on a incident. Came in handy on housefires, grassfires, forest fires, etc. Even MFC had them in the line up.

I guess with MSWIN in full swing they are slowly getting fazed out. Although here county and city fire is vhf still.
