Newish Vermont Listings from the FCC Database
----------
Burlington FD - 453.175R - 458.175M - 460.575M - 3/07 pending
FD = fire department
R = repeater output channel
M = mobile radio channel
3/07 pending - this radio license is pending in the FCC databse as of March 2007
Since we know that the mobiles in the 453 Mhz band transmit on a frequency that is 5 Mhz higher than their associated repeater, then we know that 458.175 is the input channel to the repeater's 453.175 output channel. 460.575M might be a tactical channel.
Capiche?

Barnard FD - 154.22R - 159.36in - 156.195M
----------
Woodstock FD - 153.785M - 100 mobiles at 10 watts each - 2/07 FCC - this might be a tactical channel
----------
Brandon FD1 - 154.34 - 154.25R - 158.775in - 3/07 pending - Since 154.25 is the Rutland County Fire Dispatch Channel, this looks like Brandon FD1 (which is located in Rutland County) is going to implement some sort of capability to extend their range on the County Fire Dispatch Channel.
-----------
Pownal - 159.7725M - 10 mobiles at 5 watts each - this is a business type license (IG), but it might be used by fire or publics works units in Pownal.
----------
Dover - 453.725R - 11/06
Dover - 458.5125M - portables and portable extenders (MO3s) - 1/07
Apparently their new repeater doesnt give them the coverage that they would like with their portable radios, so they have added some 'portable extenders' (which are repeaters that are mounted on emergency vehicles). AKA - mobile extenders - mobile repeaters - mobile relays - the names are vague some times - the FCC calls them MO3s (mobile radio type 3)
