Does anybody have frequencies for the forest service Huron-Manistee national forest?

 

[IcomIcR20]

I'm not familiar with your area, but it looks like they have talkgroups on the MPSCS system.

 

[Mattcat]

Yes there are some on there but mainly they don’t use the mpscs it’s all on high band I just can’t find the frequencies anywhere

These might not be up to date.

Michigan is on page 29 of https://ftp.nifc.gov/public/incident_specific_data/california_statewide/CA_Aviation_Frequencies/2018 Aviation Frequency Guide Web.pdf

Pages 8 & 9 of https://ftp.nifc.gov/public/incident_specific_data/eastern/Michigan/2012_LittleMackLake_MI-HMF-120089/ICS_GEN_STAFF/IAP/IAP_ 04292012Day.pdf has some forest net frequencies.

I have heard Forest Service Units call into Iosco County Central Dispatch on their MPSCS P911 talkgroup.

IF anyone finds [secures , wink wink] any updated 205 info or channel plans, I could get a Wiki up for them.
Nice find Tom , but also likely changed to conform to the NTIA standards [or soon to convert]

Try changing the CTCSS to the existing frequency 169.925Mhz to 110.9. The few times I hear it, up here in the UP, and monitoring the talk it indicates that it is Manistee National Forest. Might be a starting point for ya.

Back in 1987 I worked for them when I was living in oscoda. There main dispatch back then was 169.925

 

[ecps92]

In my limited Notes [2016] for that Freq/Tone it should be the Admin Net, WEST Repeaters
170.5250 156.7 might be Admin Net, East Repeaters

[cajunjerry]

What city do you live in? I might can give you the names of some retired usfs workers? In oscoda, try desi Mexican restaurant in Foote site on river road. Ask for Dallas

Ahh hitting my brain now. 170.525 was a fire ground freq. Talk around. But like I said, that was in 1987 lol

These appear in the 2016/2018 Aviation Freq Guides, but only Simplex they do not list the Repeater Site, nor an input freq.
