Yep, I heard someone (Rescue 313, I believe) say they were returning to
Yarmouth.


You might want to try 5681 for "Plymouth Rescue" out of Plymouth, England. I
haven't parked on that frequency for some years but I imagine it may still be in
use.


I just did a Google and found this on "Plymouth Rescue", which has apparently been
closed. Alo indicates that the frequency that may now be in use is 5680 vs. 5681. I
seem to recall some slight frequency shifts a number of year ago.

5695 is supposedly a secondary freq, shared with "Edinburgh Rescue" which may
also use 5681 as a primary.

Someone from the other side of the pond may have some info that may be more up
to date

Thanks for this info. I'll have to keep an ear on these frequencies and
see what pops up.
