sullivan county ny radio info

the county 911 center is the only PSAP in sullivan county - therefore
99% of the action is heard on their radio channels

radio reference basically shows 3 fire/ems channels plus 2 police
channels plus 4 local police channels plus 1 county dpw channel

if you look thru the fcc licenses - you will find approx 1 dozen more
local channels - many seem to be dpw channels

we suspect that since the FDs only have 1 repeater channel - that if a
major wildfire breaks out - there might be alot of fire radio traffic
on the local dpw channels

we ned to check further - first we need a list of all the dpw garages
- then we need to find radio channels for each - might take a while

there are approx 40 fire departments - all but 3 or 4 have just 1
station - there might be just 6 fulltime firemen in the entire county

there are approx 15 ambulance services - some have gone private - but
there are still several volunteer ambulance services

hatzolah might have 15 ambulances in the county also - scattered
around at various sites maybe - maybe all on 160.20 and 160.28 - they
are all volunteers also - not sure how much they interact with the
local 911 agencies - the county 911 center had 2000 spansih calls in
2024 but zero hebrew calls (see the language line info in the 2024
county annual report)
