In Barnstable County, EMS is handled by the local fire departments. See the Barnstable County Fire Departments wiki page for FD talkgroups and frequencies. The standard CMED frequencies are used for ambulance to hospital communications. The system is for the most part SIMPLEX. EMS patches are controlled via the Barnstable County Sheriff's Department Dispatch Center. Dispachers can switch between various towers on Cape Cod depending on the area in which the communicating ambulance is transiting.

Use a 173.8 PL for the CMED BASE frequencies only, and leave the mobile (468 MHz) frequencies as CSQ (carrier squelch). Here is a list of standard CMED frequencies:

Channel Hospital Freq Ambulance Freq
CMED-1 463.000 468.000
CMED-2 463.025 468.025
CMED-3 463.050 468.050
CMED-4 463.075 468.075
CMED-5 463.100 468.100
CMED-6 463.125 468.125
CMED-7 463.150 468.150
