Updated Wednesday 24 May 1995 --- snip --- Date: 19 Jan 2005 From: Chris Jewell Subject: A minor correction Thank you for the very interesting web site. I'll just point out that on the Yosemite frequencies page, you wrote: "Yosemite National Park, about 180 miles due west of San Francisco," If that were true, a trip to Yosemite would require a harrowing boat ride. I think you meant to say "east" rather than "west". --- snip --- Yosemite National Park, about 180 miles due east of San Francisco, is imperfectly covered by amateur (ham) radio repeaters. Because of this, and the rugged terrain, there are many dead spots and times you'll have to try several of the following frequencies. 147.000 + Yosemite 172.650 Yosemite Park Local 171.650 Mt. Hoffman 168.350 National Park Service (NPS) Ranger 171.800 Yosemite Valley Floor 170.000 Yosemite Tactical Additionally, check the following special-purpose frequencies: 155.160 Mountain Rescue Association (MRA) 155.205 Civil Air Patrol (CAP) 155.220 National Ski Patrol (NSP) 156.075 CALCORD 154.920 CLEMARS (CA Law Enforcement Mutual Aid Radio System) "Gold-1" * 154.935 CLEMARS (CA Law Enforcement Mutual Aid Radio System) "Gold-2" * 154.475 NALEMARS (National Law Enforcement Radio System) * So designated by the California Office of Emergency Services (OES), the master licensee for this frequency in CA.
