State and regional frequencies are usually found on the ''Common/Shared'' or ''Statewide'' drop-down list on the main [http://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/ RadioReference Database] page for each state, or on county database pages.
* Interoperability channel plans are often published on various state government web sites. See links at the bottom of this page.
 
* In analog mode all end user radios should transmit PL 156.7 (136.5 for high band temporary repeaters, 167.9 for NITA channels) and receive CSQ (carrier squelch) unless PL decode is necessary due to interference.
 
* In APCO P25 dgital mode all radios should use NAC $293 (NAC $68F for NTIA channels).
 
  
==== VHF Low Band ====
+
A '''D''' suffix indicates a repeater output frequency used in ''direct'' (simplex) mode; for example, LLAW1D is simplex on the output frequency of LLAW1.

|+'''VHF Low Band Interoperability'''
+
The NIFOG recommends PL 156.7 on most interoperability channels. Scanner users may want to program the frequencies with no tone and the mode set to receive both analog and digital transmissions to reduce the possibility of missing communications.

National Public Safety Interoperability Channels

Refer to USDHS National Interoperability Field Operations Guide (NIFOG) for detailed information.

Many state governments publish communications interoperability plans on their web sites. See the links at the bottom of this page.

Some states and local areas have their own interoperability or mutual aid channels or trunked system talkgroups which are used instead of, or in addition to, the channels listed below. Some trunked systems may have talkgroups permanently or temporarily patched to one or more of the channels listed below.

State and regional frequencies are usually found on the Common/Shared or Statewide drop-down list on the main RadioReference Database page for each state, or on county database pages.

A D suffix indicates a repeater output frequency used in direct (simplex) mode; for example, LLAW1D is simplex on the output frequency of LLAW1.

The NIFOG recommends PL 156.7 on most interoperability channels. Scanner users may want to program the frequencies with no tone and the mode set to receive both analog and digital transmissions to reduce the possibility of missing communications.

VHF Low Band

Frequency  Input   
Type  Tone  Alpha Tag  Description  Mode  Tag 
39.46000  45.86000   RM  156.7 PL  LLAW1/1D LLAW 1 - Law Enforcement  FM  Interop
