Question?-How to switch to another frequency?

[FDVA356 23]

With Croton EMS almost closing out it's first 6 months of existence, we are looking into how to get communications off of 46.26. Can anyone assist me in taking the next steps to get Croton EMS Operations/Communications off of 46.26? We would like to keep dispatch on 46.26 but get the rest of our communications on a separate channel.

Due to tie line costs etc. is there other means, so we can switch and still allow communications with County Control

?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I would think the best way is have your agency leadership contact 60 Control, and find out about getting onto a EMS talkgroup (EMS-10) already established on the county-wide trunked radio system.

If you need to buy new radios for the trunked system, the County may have grants available to help offset the cost of your radio purchases.
