Regions

ANB has divided the Province of New-Brunswick into 4 operational regions for dispatching purpose : North, East, South & West. ANB - Bases and Hospitals1.jpg

Radio Network

ANB utilizes a conventional VHF system (in the 148MHz and 150-152MHz) for their operations. The same freq is used 2 times for each city. Once as a talkaround (simplex) freq for the city. Again as the dispatch (repeater) freq for the same city

The channel line-up is not continous. It goes from ch 1-18, 31-48, 50, 60, 70. Odd channel number are talkaround (simplex with no tone) freqs and even channel number are dispatch (repeater with a tone usualy 151.4 except for ch. 10 & 12, with a tone of 167.9) freqs for specific cities. For exemple, (ch. 5) 148.765 is the Moncton talkaround freq while (ch. 6) 148.765 with a tone of 151.4 is the dispatch freq.

For a list of all hospitals in the province, their call sign and the dispatch ch. where the medics do their report to that hospital, see http://www.marscan.com/nbhospitalslist.htm

Some freqs are simulcast with other freqs. See map below (PS. I know the map is hard to read - i'm working on clearing it up) File:ANB Radio Network1.jpg
