These frequencies are licensed by Jefferson County for common/shared use among agencies coordinating with the county. The VHF frequencies are primarily used in the mountain areas for coordination and mutual aid responses. Other NIFOG frequencies, particularly those in the VHF High Band, may be assigned on complex incidents. Please see [[Common Public Safety#VHF High Band]] for more information. Contrary to national standards, Jeffcom's base stations do not transmit PL (CTCSS) tones on the NIFOG frequencies shown below, so it is recommended that radios be programmed for CSQ receive operation on those frequencies.

The following tables contain tone data for use in scanners which have a [[Fire Tone Out]] standby/paging option, or they can be used in any other radio or receiver capable of decoding and unmuting upon receipt of a two-tone sequential page (such as a Motorola Minitor or a [https://www.unicationusa.com/g5-p25-voice-pager Unication G series pager]). For more information on the use of these tones, and for information on consumer equipment which can support such use, please see [[Fire Tone Out]].

Golden Gate supplements their DTRS use with a VHF repeater which airs initial paging tones and dispatch information. Initial response coordination also appears to be conducted on this frequency, however the frequency does not appear to be patched to any CNF talkgroups, but rather used in a multi-select type configuration.

====Mountain Fire Dispatch====
 +
 
 +
Jeffcom's Mountain Fire Dispatch group consists of the following agencies:
 +
* [[#Elk Creek Fire Rescue]]
 +
* [[#Evergreen Fire Rescue]]
 +
* [[#Foothills Fire Rescue]]
 +
* [[#Genesee Fire Rescue]]
 +
* [[#Highland Rescue Team Ambulance District]]
 +
* [[#Indian Hills Fire Rescue]]
 +
* [[#Inter-Canyon Fire Protection District]]
 +
* [[#North Fork Volunteer Fire Department]]
 +
 
 +
 
 +
Most of these departments maintain their own radio systems which are specific to their response areas and needs. The majority are analog conventional VHF systems, however the I-70 corridor agencies (Foothills Fire, Genesee Fire, and Highland Rescue EMS) are dispatched on {{DB|s|329|DTRS}} TG 1481 and operate primarily on the state DTRS.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
On large or complex incidents, or during the initial attack phase of a wildland fire, the VHF pool of [[#Common/Shared Frequencies]] is often used.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
'''Station Alerting/Paging Frequency'''
 +
 
 +
This frequency functions in a similar manner to the old "FIRE-1" frequency on lo-band. All mountain calls are initially dispatched on this frequency and also simulcast on the responding agency's main channel. Responding units go en-route on their own agency's primary channel after receiving the page/alert.

LIMEnet is an analog conventional VHF radio network built and maintained by Foothills Fire Rescue. Named after the locations of the system's four repeaters ('''L'''ookout, '''I'''dledale, '''M'''orrison, and '''E'''l Rancho), the system provides a permanent cross-band patch to the state DTRS system and simulcasts Jeffcom's "FIRE NW" talkgroup. Genesee Fire and Highland Rescue EMS are also authorized users of this system.

West Metro Fire Rescue serves the majority of urban Jefferson County, providing services to the Cities of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lakewood,_Colorado Lakewood], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheat_Ridge,_Colorado Wheat Ridge], and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edgewater,_Colorado Edgewater], the Towns of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain_View,_Colorado Mountain View], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lakeside,_Colorado Lakeside], and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morrison,_Colorado Morrison], and the unincorporated CDP's of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applewood,_Colorado Applewood], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dakota_Ridge,_Colorado Dakota Ridge], and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ken_Caryl,_Colorado Ken Caryl]. West Metro also serves the unincorporated CDP of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roxborough_Park,_Colorado Roxborough Park] in Douglas County. Operations are primarily conducted on the Metro Area Radio Cooperative ({{DB|s|6616|MARC}}) system.
 +
 
 +
* West Metro Fire Rescue is dispatched by Jeffcom on {{DB|s|6616|MARC}} TG 37785 with automated voice dispatching taking place on {{DB|s|6616|MARC}} TG 37790.
 +
* Since transitioning to a P25 system, West Metro radios are now capable of operating directly on DTRS talkgroups for mutual aid responses, such as those used by Central Fire and South Metro. These talkgroup assignments will generally be announced by name when dispatched, although some differences in nomenclature may exist (i.e. CTAC2 in WMFR radios is analogous to CNF TAC 2 in Jeffcom radios).

====South Metro Fire Rescue====
 +
[http://www.southmetro.org/171/District-Facts-Information-Plans District Map & Information]
 +
 
 +
South Metro Fire Rescue serves a small portion of the south-eastern part of Jefferson County which had previously been served by the Littleton Fire Protection District prior to their merger with SMFR in 2019. This area includes the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbine,_Colorado unincorporated CDP of Columbine], Chatfield State Park & Reservoir, and the Lockheed Martin Space Systems Waterton Facility. Operations are conducted on the Colorado {{DB|s|329|DTRS}}, and on a handful of simplex fireground frequencies (as/when needed). Additional information is available at the Arapahoe County article located here: [[Arapahoe County (CO)#MetCom]].
 +
 
 +
* South Metro Fire Rescue is dispatched by [https://www.southmetro.org/611/Metcom-911-Dispatch South Metro Fire Emergency Communications (formerly known as "MetCom")] on {{DB|s|329|DTRS}} TG 1786 (SMF DISP1), which uses an automated voice system for dispatching. Units typically go en-route on TG 1792 (SMF OPS 2), where they coordinate their response with an in-person dispatcher.
 +
* For structural/multi-company responses, MetCom will assign a specific OPS talkgroup and/or a conventional fireground (if requested), usually starting with SMF OPS 3 (TG 1787) and working up through the available OPS talkgroups from there.
 +
* For law enforcement standbys or law enforcement sensitive incidents, MetCom will assign one of the two encrypted "SMF BLUE" talkgroups (SMF BLUE 15, TG 1793 or SMF BLUE 16, TG 2998). These "BLUE" talkgroups are '''encrypted and <u>cannot be monitored</u>'''.

==U.S. Forest Service==
 +
 
 +
The U.S. Forest Service is responsible for fire prevention, detection, and suppression on several National Forests in and around Jefferson County. They respond to smoke reports, fires, and other incidents occurring on forest land, often concurrently with other local agencies, and provide initial and extended attack resources both on and off forest lands.
 +
 
 +
Dispatching and resource tracking is provided for by the Forest Service's own national network of Interagency Dispatch Centers. These Dispatch Centers usually provide services for several forests across a given region or state and often for other federal cooperator agencies (such as the BLM). Each individual forest maintains its own communications network which can be accessed by the Interagency Dispatch Center that serves their area. These radio networks are usually designed around a single pair of VHF frequencies, which are used forest-wide. Forest Service protocol favors the use of direct/simplex frequencies whenever possible, however most (if not all) forests have a backbone of repeaters to help facilitate communications where simplex would be ineffective. Forest-wide repeater nets generally use the same RX/TX pair across the whole forest, differentiating between the individual repeaters by using sub-audible CTCSS ("PL" or "CG") tones to "dial" into the repeaters on the TX side. The RX frequency and tone remain the same across the whole net, allowing personnel to monitor traffic from multiple sites across the forest. (Note: It is recommended to place your scanner or radio in CTCSS search mode or CSQ, as tones on the Bendix King radios used by most forests can be changed on the fly from the front panel by forest personnel).

 +
 
 +
The [https://gacc.nifc.gov/rmcc/dispatch_centers/r2pbc/ Pueblo Interagency Dispatch Center] is responsible for providing dispatch and resource tracking for southeastern Colorado and the San Luis Valley and for all of Kansas. Forests within the district's boundaries include the Pike and San Isabel National Forests and the Cimarron and Comanche National Grasslands. Pueblo Dispatch (identified on-air as "Pueblo"), is staffed from 0800-1800 during the fire season and 0800-1630 during the off-season (October through April). Forest service personnel and fire suppression crews/resources are generally available for dispatch from 0900-1730 during the fire season, however local variances may exist, and fire weather conditions can dictate a change in staffing levels and hours throughout the season. During the fire season (from roughly May to September), daily fire management briefings are usually broadcast over the radio network between 1000 and 1030 in the mornings and afternoon fire weather forecast discussions are usually broadcast at 1600 or 1630.

The [https://www.fs.usda.gov/psicc Pike National Forest] encompasses approximately 1.2 million acres spread across Park, Jefferson, Douglas, Teller, and El Paso Counties in central Colorado. Because of its close proximity to both Denver and Colorado Springs, the Pike National Forest is one of the busiest forests in the region, boasting an annual visitation average of nearly 2.5 million people. The [https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/psicc/about-forest/?cid=fseprd915453 South Platte Ranger District] is responsible for 450,000 acres of the Pike National Forest, covering the entirety of southern Jefferson County, western Park County, and western Douglas County. The South Platte Ranger District is served by work centers located at the AG Ranch, Buffalo Creek, and Indian Creek. Two other Ranger Districts manage the forest, [https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/psicc/about-forest/districts/?cid=fsm9_032731 Pikes Peak] to the south, covering the portions of the forest in Teller and El Paso Counties, and the [https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/psicc/about-forest/districts/?cid=fsm9_032763 South Park Ranger District], covering the remaining portions of the forest which ring Park County. The Pike National Forest is managed jointly with the San Isabel National Forest and the [https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/psicc/about-forest/districts/?cid=fseprd821814 Cimarron] and [https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/psicc/about-forest/districts/?cid=fsm9_032695 Comanche] National Grasslands. Unlike the unified Arapahoe-Roosevelt, Pawnee radio system to the north, geographic disparities keep the operations of the PSICC radio systems separate, with each management unit operating their own net.

The [https://www.fs.usda.gov/arp Arapaho National Forest] comprises 723,744 acres spread primarily across Clear Creek, Gilpin, Grand, and Summit Counties. A small portion of the forest, the Maxwell Falls Recreation Area, intrudes into Jefferson County just south of Evergreen. This portion of the forest is managed by the [https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/arp/recarea/?recid=28372 Clear Creek Ranger District], which operates primarily on the South Net of the combined Arapahoe-Roosevelt, Pawnee (ARP) radio network. This radio network is a product of the combined management of the Arapaho National Forest, the Roosevelt National Forest (in Boulder and Larimer Counties), and the Pawnee National Grasslands (in Weld County). Previously, the radio networks for these forests were divided into two separate systems: the Roosevelt Net (which also served Pawnee) and the Arapaho Net. In 2016, additional improvements to these networks resulted in their consolidation into a single network divided into three geographical areas: North, for Roosevelt and Pawnee operations, South, for Arapaho operations on the Clear Creek Ranger District, and West, for Arapaho operations on the Sulphur Ranger District.

Fire Departments & Emergency Medical Services

Jeffcom Fire & EMS Dispatch

General Information

Current Jeffcom Fire Response Area Overview Map

File:Jeffco Fire Stations.pdf (2004)

The majority of the fire rescue and emergency medical service providers in Jefferson County are dispatched by the Jefferson County Communications Center Authority (Jeffcom 911) through a wide variety of methods and radio systems.

The following agencies are dispatched by Jeffcom:

  • #Central Fire Dispatch Group
    • Fairmount Fire Rescue
    • Golden Fire Department
    • Golden Gate Fire Protection District
    • Pleasant View Fire Department
  • #Mountain Fire Dispatch Group
    • Elk Creek Fire Rescue
    • Evergreen Fire Rescue
    • Foothills Fire & Rescue
    • Genesee Fire Protection District
    • Highland Rescue Team Ambulance District
    • Indian Hills Fire Rescue
    • Inter-Canyon Fire Protection District
    • North Fork Volunteer Fire Department


Additionally, a small handful of other agencies either operate in, or respond to areas within Jefferson County, but are not dispatched by Jeffcom. These agencies include:

  • Coal Creek Canyon Fire Protection District (Dispatched by BRCC on Boulder County (CO)#Analog (VHF), with some limited use of DTRS)
  • North Metro Fire Rescue (Dispatched by ADCOM on FRCC)
  • South Metro Fire Rescue (Dispatched by South Metro Emergency Communications on DTRS)
  • Westminster Fire Department (Dispatched by Westminster Communications on Westminster TRS)


Information concerning these agencies can be found further down the page or by clicking here: #Other Agencies not served by Jeffcom


Common/Shared Frequencies

Jeffcom DTRS Fire Zone Channel Plan

The following channel map shows how the fire zone on county DTRS portables was configured in 2008. This information was retrieved directly from a county issued DTRS portable. It is presented here as a useful reference as to the capabilities and organization of county fire radios on the DTRS system, and has been updated to reflect current talkgroup usage.

Jeffcom Common/Shared Frequencies

KAB221, WRY254, WRCU611

These frequencies are licensed by Jefferson County for common/shared use among agencies coordinating with the county. The VHF frequencies are primarily used in the mountain areas for coordination and mutual aid responses. Other NIFOG frequencies, particularly those in the VHF High Band, may be assigned on complex incidents. Please see Common Public Safety#VHF High Band for more information. Contrary to national standards, Jeffcom's base stations do not transmit PL (CTCSS) tones on the NIFOG frequencies shown below, so it is recommended that radios be programmed for CSQ receive operation on those frequencies.

CH Frequency Tone Description Notes

Central Fire Dispatch

The Central Fire Dispatch group consists of the following agencies centered around the Golden area:


All Central Fire agencies are dispatched on DTRS TG 1509 and operate primarily on the state DTRS system using the following talkgroups:

Name TGID Description Notes
CNF DISP1 1509 Jeffcom Central Fire Dispatch Dispatch channel for Fairmount, Golden, Golden Gate, and Pleasant View. Previously assigned as Fairmount Dispatch
CNF TAC 2 1538 Jeffcom Central Fire Tactical 2 Primary response channel for routine calls. Previously assigned as Fairmount Tac-1.

Mountain Fire Dispatch

Jeffcom's Mountain Fire Dispatch group consists of the following agencies:


Most of these departments maintain their own radio systems which are specific to their response areas and needs. The majority are analog conventional VHF systems, however the I-70 corridor agencies (Foothills Fire, Genesee Fire, and Highland Rescue EMS) are dispatched on DTRS TG 1481 and operate primarily on the state DTRS.


On large or complex incidents, or during the initial attack phase of a wildland fire, the VHF pool of #Common/Shared Frequencies is often used.


Station Alerting/Paging Frequency

This frequency functions in a similar manner to the old "FIRE-1" frequency on lo-band. All mountain calls are initially dispatched on this frequency and also simulcast on the responding agency's main channel. Responding units go en-route on their own agency's primary channel after receiving the page/alert.

Frequency Tone Description Notes
157.450 103.5 PL Jeffcom "Mountain Dispatch" Station Alerting & Paging All mountain calls are initially paged and dispatched on this frequency.

*Please note that this frequency is specifically exempted from the FCC's Narrowbanding Mandate. For proper reception, this frequency should be programmed for wideband (25 kHz bandwidth) receive.

West Metro Fire Rescue

District Map

WPXT498

West Metro Fire Rescue serves the majority of urban Jefferson County, providing services to the Cities of Lakewood, Wheat Ridge, and Edgewater, the Towns of Mountain View, Lakeside, and Morrison, and the unincorporated CDP's of Applewood, Dakota Ridge, and Ken Caryl. West Metro also serves the unincorporated CDP of Roxborough Park in Douglas County. Operations are primarily conducted on the Metro Area Radio Cooperative (MARC) system.

  • West Metro Fire Rescue is dispatched by Jeffcom on MARC TG 37785 with automated voice dispatching taking place on MARC TG 37790.
  • Since transitioning to a P25 system, West Metro radios are now capable of operating directly on DTRS talkgroups for mutual aid responses, such as those used by Central Fire and South Metro. These talkgroup assignments will generally be announced by name when dispatched, although some differences in nomenclature may exist (i.e. CTAC2 in WMFR radios is analogous to CNF TAC 2 in Jeffcom radios).

South Metro Fire Rescue

District Map & Information

South Metro Fire Rescue serves a small portion of the south-eastern part of Jefferson County which had previously been served by the Littleton Fire Protection District prior to their merger with SMFR in 2019. This area includes the unincorporated CDP of Columbine, Chatfield State Park & Reservoir, and the Lockheed Martin Space Systems Waterton Facility. Operations are conducted on the Colorado DTRS, and on a handful of simplex fireground frequencies (as/when needed). Additional information is available at the Arapahoe County article located here: Arapahoe County (CO)#MetCom.

  • South Metro Fire Rescue is dispatched by South Metro Fire Emergency Communications (formerly known as "MetCom") on DTRS TG 1786 (SMF DISP1), which uses an automated voice system for dispatching. Units typically go en-route on TG 1792 (SMF OPS 2), where they coordinate their response with an in-person dispatcher.
  • For structural/multi-company responses, MetCom will assign a specific OPS talkgroup and/or a conventional fireground (if requested), usually starting with SMF OPS 3 (TG 1787) and working up through the available OPS talkgroups from there.
  • For law enforcement standbys or law enforcement sensitive incidents, MetCom will assign one of the two encrypted "SMF BLUE" talkgroups (SMF BLUE 15, TG 1793 or SMF BLUE 16, TG 2998). These "BLUE" talkgroups are encrypted and cannot be monitored.

U.S. Forest Service

The U.S. Forest Service is responsible for fire prevention, detection, and suppression on several National Forests in and around Jefferson County. They respond to smoke reports, fires, and other incidents occurring on forest land, often concurrently with other local agencies, and provide initial and extended attack resources both on and off forest lands.

Dispatching and resource tracking is provided for by the Forest Service's own national network of Interagency Dispatch Centers. These Dispatch Centers usually provide services for several forests across a given region or state and often for other federal cooperator agencies (such as the BLM). Each individual forest maintains its own communications network which can be accessed by the Interagency Dispatch Center that serves their area. These radio networks are usually designed around a single pair of VHF frequencies, which are used forest-wide. Forest Service protocol favors the use of direct/simplex frequencies whenever possible, however most (if not all) forests have a backbone of repeaters to help facilitate communications where simplex would be ineffective. Forest-wide repeater nets generally use the same RX/TX pair across the whole forest, differentiating between the individual repeaters by using sub-audible CTCSS ("PL" or "CG") tones to "dial" into the repeaters on the TX side. The RX frequency and tone remain the same across the whole net, allowing personnel to monitor traffic from multiple sites across the forest. (Note: It is recommended to place your scanner or radio in CTCSS search mode or CSQ, as tones on the Bendix King radios used by most forests can be changed on the fly from the front panel by forest personnel).


Pueblo Interagency Dispatch Center

Federal Dispatch Boundary Maps for Colorado

The Pueblo Interagency Dispatch Center is responsible for providing dispatch and resource tracking for southeastern Colorado and the San Luis Valley and for all of Kansas. Forests within the district's boundaries include the Pike and San Isabel National Forests and the Cimarron and Comanche National Grasslands. Pueblo Dispatch (identified on-air as "Pueblo"), is staffed from 0800-1800 during the fire season and 0800-1630 during the off-season (October through April). Forest service personnel and fire suppression crews/resources are generally available for dispatch from 0900-1730 during the fire season, however local variances may exist, and fire weather conditions can dictate a change in staffing levels and hours throughout the season. During the fire season (from roughly May to September), daily fire management briefings are usually broadcast over the radio network between 1000 and 1030 in the mornings and afternoon fire weather forecast discussions are usually broadcast at 1600 or 1630.

Pike National Forest

pike_nat_forest_vicinity_map.jpg

The Pike National Forest encompasses approximately 1.2 million acres spread across Park, Jefferson, Douglas, Teller, and El Paso Counties in central Colorado. Because of its close proximity to both Denver and Colorado Springs, the Pike National Forest is one of the busiest forests in the region, boasting an annual visitation average of nearly 2.5 million people. The South Platte Ranger District is responsible for 450,000 acres of the Pike National Forest, covering the entirety of southern Jefferson County, western Park County, and western Douglas County. The South Platte Ranger District is served by work centers located at the AG Ranch, Buffalo Creek, and Indian Creek. Two other Ranger Districts manage the forest, Pikes Peak to the south, covering the portions of the forest in Teller and El Paso Counties, and the South Park Ranger District, covering the remaining portions of the forest which ring Park County. The Pike National Forest is managed jointly with the San Isabel National Forest and the Cimarron and Comanche National Grasslands. Unlike the unified Arapahoe-Roosevelt, Pawnee radio system to the north, geographic disparities keep the operations of the PSICC radio systems separate, with each management unit operating their own net.

Fort Collins Interagency Dispatch Center

Federal Dispatch Boundary Maps for Colorado

The Fort Collins Interagency Dispatch Center is responsible for providing dispatch and resource tracking for northeastern Colorado. Forests within the district's boundaries include the Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests and the Pawnee National Grasslands. Fort Collins Dispatch (identified on-air as "Fort Collins"), is staffed from 0800-1800 daily. Forest service personnel and fire suppression crews/resources are generally available for dispatch from 0900-1730, however local variances may exist, and fire conditions can dictate a change in staffing levels and hours throughout the season. During the fire season (from roughly May to September), daily fire management briefings are usually broadcast over the radio between 1000 and 1030 in the mornings and afternoon fire weather forecast discussions are usually broadcast at either 1600 or 1630.


Arapaho National Forest

The Arapaho National Forest comprises 723,744 acres spread primarily across Clear Creek, Gilpin, Grand, and Summit Counties. A small portion of the forest, the Maxwell Falls Recreation Area, intrudes into Jefferson County just south of Evergreen. This portion of the forest is managed by the Clear Creek Ranger District, which operates primarily on the South Net of the combined Arapahoe-Roosevelt, Pawnee (ARP) radio network. This radio network is a product of the combined management of the Arapaho National Forest, the Roosevelt National Forest (in Boulder and Larimer Counties), and the Pawnee National Grasslands (in Weld County). Previously, the radio networks for these forests were divided into two separate systems: the Roosevelt Net (which also served Pawnee) and the Arapaho Net. In 2016, additional improvements to these networks resulted in their consolidation into a single network divided into three geographical areas: North, for Roosevelt and Pawnee operations, South, for Arapaho operations on the Clear Creek Ranger District, and West, for Arapaho operations on the Sulphur Ranger District.
