19 155.7525 155.7525 VCALL

etc

per Town of Middlebury Emergency management Plan 2019

elsewhere in plan 155.76 is listed as the FD toneout freq (same as the
Middlebury DPW freq)

this list of freqs is under the heading of - MOBILE RADIOS: VHF Band
Middlebury Police Department & Other Agency Interoperability System
VHF Radios - therefore when they say "TX" I assume that means the TX
freq for the mobile - which seems to be correct - ie '153.83 TX with
154.40 RX' means that the repeater transmits on 154.40 and receives on
153.83 - aka - the repeater input is 153.83 and the repeater output is
154.40 - which is typical for every VHF repeater in the USA that uses
153.83 - since 153.83 was historically a HT freq - an since it matches
the FCC license

NOTE - multi repeaters on 155.715 with various input channels - I have
no idea what they are trying to accomplish here

NOTE - sheriff uses VHF high vs UHF like 90% of PDs in VT

NOTE - I assume that that Williston State Dispatch Office dispatches
all of the FDs that use 155.715 as their main freq - and I assume they
just send out a page on 155.715 - maybe the multi repeaters on 155.715
allow the various FD HTs to talk back to Williston Dispatch without
the need for 100 remote receiver sites throughout the county
