The City of Boston (acting as a regional coordinator) has applied for a batch of new UHF radio channels to improve public safety comms in the Greater Boston area. Here is what they are seeking at this time. Weston - 470.1625 - at 235 Wellesley Ave Lexington - at Jean Rd water tank - 482.0875 Waltham - at 155 Lexington St - 482.225 - 470.1125 Medford - at 6 Ames St - 482.1375 Melrose at 576 Main St - 470.15 Malden at 250 Main St - 482.0125 Everett at 103 Garland St - 470.0875 - 482.175 (all of the above are probably new FD freqs replacing each individual community's VHF highband freq) Cambridge at 40 Thorndike St - 482.05 - 482.025 - 482.1875 - 470.125 Quincy at Ricutti Dr - 482.30 - ERP592 Woburn at Zion Hill - 482.25 - ERP200 (this batch might be regional channels) Weymouth at 636 Broad St - 482.0625 (this might replace 154.235R for Weymouth FD) Blue Hill in Milton - 482.075 (this might be a regional channel or a new channel for Milton FD which presently shares 483.5125R with Braintree FD) Lynn at 424 Essex St - 470.175 - 482.2125 - 482.225 Saugus at 6 Taylor St - 482.2625 (these 2 are probably replacing VHF highband FD channels) 600 Atlantic Ave in Boston - 470.20 - 470.0375 - 470.075 - 482.15 - 482.2875 - 470.0125 - 482.0375 35 Northampton St in Boston - 470.075 - 482.2875 - 482.15 (these might be new Police or EMS or Disaster channels) 91 Crest Ave in Chelsea - 470.0125 - 482.0375 - ERP200 Ricutti Dr in Quincy - 470.0125 - 482.0374 - ERP200 (these 2 entries look like new regional channels) Carroll Way in Revere - 470.0625 - 482.20 91 Crest Ave in Chelsea - 470.05 (simplex) - 470.025 - 482.2375 (these 2 entries are probably replacements for FD VHF highband channels) All of the freqs are listed as repeaters - except for 1 as indicated in Chelsea - ERP is usually 50 except some are higher which might indicate a regional channel - all emissions seem to be listed as 11K3F3E (narrow analog) - there might have been 1 digital regional channel listed. The supporting documentation in the FCC applications suggests that Boston EMS wants to move their 2 primary channels off 462.975 and 462.95 - that a couple of MO3 channels were be implemented - there will be new simplex fireground channels - 2 new disaster channels - and new police channels. Time will tell how much of this pending application stays in its present form. I dont see any obvious channels for Cambridge or Massport.
