North Park Fire Protection District Remote Receive/Transmit Links (RF)
- Main Repeater - link os 460.5875 Rec.in and 465.5875 out. Located at the water tower in Loves park.
- Backup Repeater - link is 460.625 in and 465.625 out and is located at NPFD 600 wood ave. Machesney.
- Both Repeaters Receive 154.325 and retransmit on either repeater output
(465.5875 or 465.625) to St Anthony hospital in Rockford IL and is controlled by St Anthonys.
So at all times .."MedCom" at St Anthonys can hear 154.325 on either tower sight by listening to 465.5875 or 465.625 and respond using 460.5875 or 460.625 to output 154.325.
Dispatch is located a few miles away from the fire district therefore.. A UHF link is needed for dispatch. They have 2 Receive sights for redundancy.

Metro Enforcement
They contract with Rockford PD and have full PD powers of arrest @ City housing projects, events, malls and various property management contracts. They are carry firearms. Fleet of marked & unmarked Ford CVPIs.
>>Their PRIMARY DISPATCH/Freqs in Rockford are as follows:
- 461.6750 (466.6750 Input) WQJA499 DPL464 NFM Metro Enforcement Dispatch F1(Portables)
- 461.6750 (Simplex) WQJA499 DPL464 NFM Metro Enforcement T/A F2 (Portables)

Interestingly enough, the callsign, WQJA499, only licenses this freq for Chicago (they run a 662DPL on the same pair in Chicago) - however they use it out here in Rockford, too - just with a different PL. Interesting ????
This information has been confirmed as of 6/30/15.
