Washington County EMS

[radiotweester]

Tuesday Aug 1 is the day when MetroWest is replaced by AMR as the Ambulance Service for Washington County.
I don't have any info regarding TGs or freqs as of yet. It sounded like AMR was suppose to be more automated regarding dispatching so I would assume WC will set up an EMS Dispatch TG like BOEC has. It's possible that VHF might be used as in Clackamas Co. Anyone who happens to hear, please give input.

AMR are using 1## IDs on WC Ops channels. 2## being Clackamas Co and 3## being Multnomah Co.

3 new TGs. Put it in wildcard and see what you discover

Unfortunately I'm stuck in P25 P1 and RTL-SDR, but THANKS for the info!
It explains why 155.235 only has the 2## and 3## IDs.

I'm currently hearing Washington Co AMR units on the Clackamas Co AMR talkgroup 3553

That was the one. I was down yesterday monitoring Wash Co. C site I think and heard nothing.

I've heard them come up on MC EMS Dispatch by mistake, so the 700/800 dispatch channel on WC TRS makes total sense.
Might submit then if you haven't. I've not looked recently. Thanks!

BTW, BOEC Goat mtn has a better signal recently. It seems to affiliate better to the north and through downtown.
