Public Safety Radio Information
Some Fire, EMS, and Rescue Units are dispatched by the Pickens County 911 answering point located at the Law Enforcement Center. Clemson and Easley dispatch their own fire and police departments.
EMS - 155.1750 Mhz Medic 1 (Pickens) Medic 2 (Easley West side station) Medic 3 (Liberty Station) Medic 4 (Central Station) Medic 5 (Dacusville Station) Medic 6 (Holly Springs Station) Medic 7 (Six Mile Station) Medic 8 (Easley East side station) G1 - Coroner G4 - Coroner's transport unit
This radio channel was originally a remote base when the frequency was shared by Greenville County EMS only 15 miles away. Greenville County eventually moved to UHF, and when FCC regulations allowed EMS VHF repeaters, the system was converted. It is referred to as channel 1.
County Units - 155.1150 Mhz 100's - Administrator's Office 200's - Public Works 3200's - Emergency Management Rescue 6 (Central squad members 61 to 625) (reported to be disbanded) Rescue 7 (Pickens squad members 71 to 725) Rescue 8 (Easley squad members 81 to 825) Rescue 9 (Liberty squad members 91 to 925) (reported to be disbanded)
This is referred to as the Admin channel or channel 3. For many years, this was the only Pickens County VHF repeater channel for local government/EMS/Rescue use. It was originally located on Woodall Mountain, but was moved to the present 911 site when the Woodall Forestry tower was taken down. The move improved coverage east and north of Pickens, but coverage to the Clemson/Central area is less than before. All county services make use of this system and it becomes congested during severe weather events. The active Pickens County Rescue Squads operate under the County Emergency Management Agency.
