Look at the One Stop Shop at the top of the FESA Forum. There's a WAERN SES list there.

Would I be correct in saying 162.8375, 164.000, 164.350 & 164.900? (I'm aware that One and Three are said as Department of Conservation and Environment)
Excuse the newbiness in this, but I'm new to this sort of stuff. Aren't some for FRS/FESA?

Use the Red Hill channels. Ch57 VHF mid band or 306 on WAERN

Try either 78.100 or 164.000 or 163.250 (306 there Gavin ;))

Read the documents in the first post.

Whoops. Yep, you're right. Channel 57 is 78.125 and should be nice and strong in Lockridge... just down the road from my place.

Hi

Rescue 65 is going down to boddington area and are using our northam shire channelto talk to williams any idea why they would be using Ch 43 instead of another channel?

We are getting all the chatter from Rescue 65 over our repeater.

This happened last night and also at the moment 6/12/09.

Perhaps Boddington/Williams also operate on Ch 43, and due to the altitude of Rescue 65, it was able to get line of sight with our repeater. i didn't hear this AM's chatter, but I don't recall hearing two sides of the conversation last night - heard enough to know that it wasn't a fire in Northam, made sure pager was nearby and turned radio off. one false alarm waking me up for the night was enough.

Probably.

The channel crowding of the VHF mid-band channels is one of the reasons FESA started WAERN, after all.
