Countywide Information

  • Countywide Dispatch on 153.9650 to all medium sized towns, except as noted here.
  • 154.7400 is used as an intercity channel between departments in the county, and as a countywide BOLO channel.
  • Countywide Dispatching is done from the "Berkshire Sheriffs Control" located in Pittsfield.
  • Small Towns are patrolled by MSP Small Town (B1-Lee, B4-Cheshire, B5-Russell)
  • B4/Small Town patrols in the northern part of the county can also be heard on MSP B-PTL-2, Smartzone 7 (Mt Greylock)
  • Berkshire County will use 155.7750 to dispatch towns in far southern Berkshire County from atop Warner Mountain in Great Barrington. This frequency is also used by the county dispatch and Great Barrington Police to dispatch the Southern Berkshire Volunteer Ambulance Squad located at Fairview Hospital in Great Barrington. Great Barrington uses the frequency for local police dispatching, and to communicate with surrounding towns, however Great Barrington police operate from the roof of Fairview Hospital, and not the Warner Mountain site.
  • Egremont has the ability to communicate with the nearby Columbia County Sheriff's Dispatch, and is identified on their frequency with the same ID as they use in Berkshire County. (1538, 838)
