https://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?ctid=2314 - local FDs operate
on UHF - the list of FDs in the wiki seems to be old - approx a dozen
sub stations have been added

State Forestry might have 1 or 2 stations in Aiken County - radios are
on VHF highband - the Silverton Fire Lookout Tower has 159.255R
(listed as Ch17 Talatha at
https://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?aid=6419) + 159.27 FB + 159.45
FB

The Savanah River DOE FD apparently has 3 structural fire stations -
seems they use a federal TRS - maybe
