I was on one of their busses when they ran them as shuttles from the Enfield Square Mall to the Town Green for the 4th of July festivity this year. It was 75% full and I was in the middle-ish. I did hear a bit of radio chatter, it kinda sounded digital, but it was hard to be 100% sure due to the noise.

As it was a multi-agency event I have no idea of they were using their radios(what ever that might be), the town Magic Carpet bus radios (no idea what they use either) as they also had a few busses running in the rotation, Board of Ed license, or the 4th of July celebration radios as they have like 6 licensed freqs but I have only found 2.

I don’t recall them off the top of my head, I know I submitted them into the RRDB and they were posted a while back somewheres under the Hartford county listing.

Edit: just to clarify, I found two of the Enfield Fourth of July celebration committee frequencies for things like concessions, emptying trash, volunteer/event, coordination, etc., on the town green.

“On the town Green” police/fire/EMS seems to usually end up on the townwide interop channel during peak times, however, you can also find fire abd EMS on the usual channels as well for event related calls.

PD traffic details usually end up on EPD channel 2 wall all other calls outside of the immediate town green area end up on the regular EPD dispatch channel.
