Hello I wondered if the Tow truck operators have frequencies they can listen to for OPP Comms ?
What are tow truck listening to?

Thank you the closest to me would be King City so I will leave the scanner on that. I usually listen to Fire since the dispatch center for my area is in Barrie. I am in Angus.
I just picked up OPP on 149.665 looking for Tow Truck on Highway 404 very clear using the Anytone D578UV mobile radio. My antenna is 40ft up.

I don't know if there is one. I've heard GTA tow calls on the Brantford frequency and Niagara tow calls on the King City frequency.
I've heard a QEW Mississauga call off of Niagara 140.955 listening from Toronto.
I'm listening to the King City one, I've heard them asking for tows from Caledon, on the Burlington Skyway and down in to Toronto, up the 404 into York Region. I'm in Keswick, so close enough to the 400 and 404 to hear them.

The Niagara and King frequencies seem to be simulcast.
They should have set them as P25, the signal is fairly weak in the Toronto area.

I am hearing them dispatch all over the place from King City as well. I wonder if there is any clear comms from the center in Orillia. Perhaps I will talk to one of the actual tow truck drivers to see how they are getting calls and what they listen to on their radios in my area or north of Barrie.
