Arkansas is served by a multitude of public safety agencies. Police services are provided by State Police / Highway Patrol; County Sheriff Departments; and City Police Departments. Fire services are provided by local fire departments and State Forestry. There are no County Fire Departments; and few if any regional fire departments.. Ambulance service is provided by Countys, Citys, private, and independent ambulance services. [ There are several private ambulances companys with regional multi county operations that have 1 amb station per county . 8/25/2025 ] Countywide 911 dispatch centers are operated by many counties - often under the control of the Sheriff. In the 1970s many smaller agencies operated on 37.10, 37.18, 37.26 iirc. Presently many agencies operate on the statewide 700/800 trunked radio system. Many agencies operate in the VHF highband (150 to 170 Mhz). 8/16/2022

ZERG90 MAPS
Please look at the list of counties etc (along the left side of this page) (upper right - whatever - wherever it is today). There is a zerg90 map to be found on most of those webpages.
2/17/2023 - we have maps for approx 50 counties at this time - there are 75 counties in Arkansas per Hone Town Locator - therefore we have 66.6% coverage - seems about right
Let me list a couple of regional maps here -
NW Arkansas area - www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1eugYBt_Ap4EE481MleEwYwp1ee8&usp=sharing
Randolph County area - www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1XwDLGeFtLVRrCrfUVggE6rFw8gQ&usp=sharing
Little Rock / Pulaski County area - www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1szxHAJeQ4i56Nfy6sdiVmxnciiM&usp=sharing
(these 3 regional maps may have been deconstructed into county primary maps - lets check and see where we stand on this project - not that it matters in a large way - 2/17/2023 - yup - looks like we have already converted all of these regional maps into individual county maps - but we will keep these regional maps as a special free extra bonus 15% more free free free)
