A few departments have begun to migrate fire operations over to Ohio MARCS, MARCS restricts any cross-band patches between Ohio MARCS and VHF to temporary, emergency or special-event use only.
Muskingum County will be merging dispatch over to VHF highband in the near future, due to issues with VHF low band, including skip and flawed Perry County cross patches.
