I just started going back and redoing a lot of my scan lists for New England today and as I was going through Orleans County, I noticed multiple departments missing. It seems Newport City (except PD), Derby, Glover, and Charleston are all missing since I last looked. A number of towns (but not all) also have 460.5875 listed as an XBand, is this a new county dispatch frequency or something along those lines? A little confused but that might be the 3 am sleep deprivation.

Honestly, we get next to zero database submissions from that area. Hardly ever. On Scan New England too.
Anything in the DB is based on these submissions. If you are travelling to the area, and have updates, please submit them to the DB!
(Remember to include a CTCSS/DCS tone, so we can add it.)

Welcome to the RR forums. Being that you're an RR premium subscriber you can certainly utilize the FCC data search to look up these towns' licenses. Inputting "Glover" for example into the "Query FCC Licensee Name" search box brings up the results below (I omitted "Glover" in other states from the query) and this will hopefully get you on the right path

Glover Ambulance Squad, Inc.0007233935VTORLEANS
GLOVER, TOWN OF0003650058VTORLEANS

Be sure to submit confirmed findings to the RRDB so others can benefit

based on prior trips to that area those 460/465 are remote Up/down links from the Mountain Tops.
Your reception may vary as they are on a BEAM back to the Dispatch, but if you hear it, it does make for better coverage
as you can then hear the other side of the mountains, but you won't heard Dispatch as it usually mutes

Yeah, I was just a little lost since there was data for those four that got removed back in December, but I still have them in my scanner (ws1040). I'm not sure if this is perfect info but I'm trying my best, all the departments up there run so little that it's hard to get them confirmed. Before officially submitting anything, I just want to check about what the "Sq:Search" may be where other channels show a CT/DC.

County EMS (Confirmed dispatch channel as of this month) - 155.2050 CT:179.9
Derby Line Fire (Confirmed dispatch as of Winter) - 154.1300, also Sq:Search
Glover Fire (Active channel as of winter) - 155.1000, Sq:Search
Newport City Fire (Confirmed dispatch this month) - 154.9650, Sq:Search


Below are other departments that I haven't personally confirmed yet but have alleged frequencies for, either from data in my scanner/RRDB or from a list a local FD posted on Facebook. Mostly putting these here so I have them for later reference.

Albany - 154.3550, Sq:Search
Brighton (Essex County but dispatched by Orleans) - 154.0850, CT:203.5
Charleston - 155.0400, Sq:Search
Irasburg - 154.1450, Sq:Search
Jay - 154.2050, CT:241.8
Lowell - 155.0250, Sq:Search
Newport Center - 153.7700, DC:703
North Troy - 154.175, DC:226
Orleans FD - 154.1600, Sq:Search
Troy - 154.4150, CT:127.3
Westmore - 158.775

This is the aforementioned list that Brighton FD posted back in 2022

Thank you all for the help, very much appreciated! (And maybe they should just go to countywide dispatch for our sake ;))
