San Bernardino County Fire

[ScanFanEd]

Can anyone advise where most of San Bernardino County Fire radio traffic is? Are they still using the VHF conventional frequencies below or are they pretty much just on the trunked system?

Just like it says: for the most part both are patched 24/7. The primary system is P25 digital trunked. If you happen to be in one of the above areas, you can listen to the command channel traffic on VHF. These patches allow VHF only cooperators the ability to verbally respond and hear command traffic from the trunked system.

Which one of those VHF channels does LACoFD E79 use to contact Comm Center when responding with Wrightwood Station 14?
