DETAILED PUBLIC SAFETY RADIO SYSTEM INFO FOR CASSIA COUNTY IDAHO

Cassia County - a very rural mountainous county in South Central Idaho - I used to correspond with a fire buff out there so I know a little bit about the area - all Public Safety dispatching is done from the County 911 Center. The 453Mhz freqs are used by the fire and EMS units in the County.

Abbreviations and Such
R = repeater output / M = mobiles only / (date)FCC = date of license issue by FCC / (date)pending = date license ?applied for

Breakdown by Site
