Please see my scan from the Incident Command package for today. The Interagency frequencies are NOT the main frequencies they are using with this incident. They have assign their own frequencies for this incident so they keep the Interagency frequencies clear.

And the frequencies are NARROWBAND/ANALOG... your radio has to have the ability to find the narrow part of the band and pick up that signal. You may not get any chatter if you type in those frequencies listed on the scan.

Just came across this when searching fires for other sites. I heard it may have jumped a river.

Do you mean "jumped the river" as in Platte?

I think this was from this morning.

They said they were going to have to use boats on the river to get the fire fighters to some of the more active areas of the fire today.
