  • 1185.2/1122.5 - Millersport (3rd Tone Set = Activates Station PA & radios/pagers)

Fairfield & Licking counties use a different 2nd tone set when activating pagers for Millersport Fire to allow users to know which dispatch center paged out the run; additionally, the 2nd tone set also is used as a "time delay" to allow the local repeater to keyup before the 3rd tone set is paged out. The rebroadcast is aired on the county EMS frequency WITHOUT a PL tone and is only heard locally around the millersport area due to the repeater being low profile and on low power
