Radio Frequencies
| The following are the radio frequencies used by Norfolk Ambulance and Litchfield County Dispatch. “Dispatch 1” or “County” is the dispatch frequency for most of Litchfield County. During large incidents or when numerous departments are on the air, LCD or field units may request a frequency change to Scene 3, Scene 4, etc. If on one of these other channels you are unable to converse with other units, return to Dispatch 1 and confirm with LCD that you were on the correct channel or that other units had indeed switched over to that frequency. |
