Town of Beaufort, N.C. Frequencies

[KC4YIN]

In preparation for a trip to Beaufort next week I was looking for frequencies specifically for the town of Beaufort and found nothing.
Everything in and around the area is either on VHF or Viper. Does anyone know what frequencies are used by the town of Beaufort?
Thanks.

Had to dig around the Carteret County wiki to find the answers but:

• Law 4 Beaufort, Cape Carteret, Indian Beach, Newport Police

154.845

159.030

KSL499

RM

85.4 PL

LAW 4

Municipal Agencies

FMN

Law Dispatch

154.995

158.955

WQDK653

RM

179.9 PL

FIRE 1

Carteret County Fire/Ems Dispatch

FMN

Fire Dispatch

No idea what fire ops would look like (tac channels appear mostly simplex aside from the first two listed) Someone local will need to weigh in but they appear to be Station 54:

• 54- Beaufort Fire Dept

Hi, I looked further at FCC database. KSL499 expired in 2004. The other license is still active and clicking on the link will bring up other still licensed frequencies under that license. I am not local to that area but you might want to plug in at least the frequencies listed at FB and FB2 on your trip and see if anything is heard. If you hear anything, please let us know. If you can confirm anything being used and for what purpose, please post it as a submission to get added by one of the database administrators. Thank you. Enjoy your trip. I have been there years ago.

Thanks gentlemen. That's a big help. Had totally forgotten to check the wiki.
Much appreciated.

Just got this notification and I'm glad I did!
Pretty sad I live in Morehead City and I don't even have Beaufort in my scanner Db!

Will be going through my Db and see if they need to be added!

Thanks!

It looks like Carteret County Fire/EMS is on the NC VIPER Trunked System. Carteret County has 4 sites on the system:

036 Kuhns PE
037 Laurel Rd
043 Newport
061 Stacy

If you can copy this system, Morehead City Police/Fire, Atlantic Beach Police/Fire, Emerald Isle Police/Fire/EMS, Carteret County Sheriff's Office as well as NC State Police are also on the VIPER system.
