===========================================================
WINDSOR COUNTY MONITORING GUIDE
Windsor County Vermont - a monitoring guide - [ this guide will list the relevant radio channels to monitor for each town or city - all of them - 8//27/2025 ]
Listing format is ->>>> Town or City - type of service provided (PD FD DPW Amb etc) - name of agency (or sub agency ish) providing the service - radio channel and PL / DPL / NAC - dispatch point for the agency
we will attempt to provide dates and freshness info for the data - and sources etc - today 8/26/2025 we are using the zerg90 freq database and the state 911 map and scan new england and radio reference database and misc local govt websites and fcc uls
================================
911 is the emergency telephone number - for police, fire, and ambulance
There are two 911 PSAPs - Hartford PD + Westminster Vermont State Police (VSP)
Hartford PD is PSAP for Royalton, Sharon, Norwich, Pomfret, Hartford, Woodstock, Hartland, Reading, West Windsor, Windsor, Cavendish, Weathersfield, and Chester - per 2022 vt psap map - Hartford PD dispatches for 14 agencies - per Hartford PD website - 8/27/2025
The Hartford PD PSAP and the VSP PSAP both also serve as 'dispatch points' or 'dispatch centers' - ie - they not only receive 911 calls and emergency calls - they also dispatch resources to handle those calls - (the tricky part will be figuring out who dispatches whom - 8/26/2025)
Radio Channels
State Police - 460.475 R - PL 162.2 - VSP Westminster
State Police - 460.025 R - PL 156.7 - VSP Royalton

Special Information
[Water Shuttle - vtacs - per rrdb wiki iirc ] - Vermont has a statewide agency who works to provide a FD approved water supply site within 3 miles of all locations - they give money to rural FDs typically to install dry hydrants
[FAST = first aid and stabilization team (or aka 'FAST Squad' or 'rescue squad' or 'rescue') - these are licensed EMS providers ("first responders") who respond to emergencies in personal vehicles and small rescue trucks - they do not operate ambulances - they are intended to arrive before the ambulance and begin life saving care while awaiting the arrival of the ambulance]
