Sonoma County CA - comparing info

Sonoma County California - comparing info from March 2020 CDF list vs RRDB

RRDB seems to have all of the CDF info - except for 2 items

Cloverdale Ambulance - 154.89 R - PL 186.2 - 158.94 input - (did they upgrade to repeater ops recently?)

Cloverdale Public Works - 153.845 - low power - mobiles TX 146.2 - mobiles RX 0.0 - (RRDB shows this as Fire / EMS Tac - maybe it is both actually)

Corrections for Cloverdale

Ambulance repeater output is 158.940, input is 154.890.

Public works moved to UHF to better interface with the PD. WREP230. Old VHF was 153.920/156.225

153.845 is something called City Net. Used for paging only now.

I forgot to list - American Canyon PD Green - 153.365 - PL 0.0 - per 3/2020 cdf freq list

I've always been told, and I live in Cloverdale, that 154.890 is our Medic's output...I'll have to check the other frequency.

Looks like the repeater output that @ramal121 has mentioned for Cloverdale is accurate. 154.890 is the INPUT and I'd have never known better because I live in town, so it's easy to hear everything there.

Paging who?

 

[ramal121]

Whom? The PD maintains pagers.

So it can be updated to Cloverdale PD Paging? Is it still 146.2 PL, or just data with no PL tone?

Is that 464.0125, and do you have a PL tone?

 

[kg6nlw]

I haven't heard anything on the Public Works channel or the old VHF frequency and I put them in after this thread came up.

Just confirming you're monitoring 464.0125, 469.0125, 153.845, 153.920, and 156.225?

153.845, and 464.0125 in particular. 464.0125 has no activity that I can hear/see.

I show a PL of 186.2, but the Minitors don't use it of course.

PW uses DCS 271N

We got them a new license and they acquired second hand equipment from the PD but we can't twist their arms behind their backs to make them use it.

Naturally and good to know about the DCS/PL!

Should the Cloverdale Ambulance frequency be tagged EMS Dispatch? (instead of Fire-Tac)

 

[kg6nlw]

I would think so. They are dispatched by the PD and quite often requested to cover REDCOM's Northern area when ALS/BLS/SLS are all tied up.

Is Sonoma Sheriff Ch. 3 still used for River & Valley Dispatch part-time? And if so, are the hours in the DB still correct?

Yes, it is the same frequency still and still used. The hours are always variable, it should be noted as such. 0900-0100 isn't accurate anymore.

Thanks. I changed it to "River & Valley Dispatch (Part-Time)"
