Good day, all! Heading up to Norway come August and was curious to know the following:

Understanding Oxford County dispatches all fire departments within the county, would that be indicative of Norway being dispatched and operating on 154.07... OR Norway is dispatched on their licensed machine on 153.815... OR dispatched on 154.07 and switch over to 153.815?

Appreciate any info.

Dispatched on 154.0700, but look for them to switch to their own LOCAL Channel for Ops on 153.8150
most of the towns up that way have their own LOCAL channel

Been awhile since I've been up that way, so it may have changed, but... worth having both anyway

My man - thank you kindly! Figure I'll throw in both, regardless. Turning a knob ain't too hard 🤣

ecps92 is correct, Norway is one of several towns that have a local repeater they use for fire ground operations but all towns in Oxford county are dispatched on Oxford County Fire. I will take a look at the database and make sure the local repeaters are accurate.
