National Guard and COVID-19 Operations

I have seen and heard some frequencies and radio systems that appear to be specially reserved for operations supporting response to the COVID-19 pandemic in various areas of the country. Unfortunately, many people seem to want to be given these frequencies instead of looking for them. Many of these channels, especially National Guard channels, are not well known and will have to be found by searching.

These frequencies will not necessarily involve medical calls or ambulances, but instead will be government agencies providing supplies or personnel to assist with food and equipment as needed.

Many National Guard units have access to statewide radio systems, either trunked or conventional.

For those who are interested, I thought I would post what I have found and add to it as new information comes in.

If you have any frequencies or information on COVID-19 response frequencies, feel free to send them to me on Twitter (@TheFedFiles) or email cparris2+fedfiles@gmail.com
