Anderson County EMS

  • EMS initial call-out is on TG 8585 Dispatch (also broadcasts on 8535) in the clear and then TG 8535 is used for Ops (Dispatch/Response, encrypted)
  • Patient Reports - Use a standalone UHF MED frequency to contact the hospital in the county in Oak Ridge. Most transports go to one of 7 different Knox county hospitals. When going to a Knox hospital the EMS unit calls the regional medical communications center on MED10, then they assign them an UHF MED channel (MED 3-8) and dials in to create a “patch”. There is also a couple of Statewide VHF EMS channels simplex used as backup patches to hospitals. The plan is to start moving that all to TACN and that work has started.

Anderson County Fire

Volunteer Fire Departments and Rescue Squad are dispatched on Fire Ops 1 (8529). Fire operations stay on that TG unless a large incident (structure fire, major MVA) occurs. Fire switches to a Tac TG (usually Fire-Tac 1) for larger incidents.

Anderson County Emergency Management

EMA operates on various talk groups in the system, primarily on Fire Ops 1 for fires and EMA OPS for other events.
