While browsing through recent license updates, I ran across some NYSP frequencies in the 220 MHz range in the Finger Lakes region. The license is WPPE729 and the frequencies are allocated as QM - Non-Nationwide Public Safety/Mutual Aid, 220 MHz. There are other NYSP 220 MHz licenses around the state.

Riveting stuff here... Mobiletech Site 31 (Attica) is reporting a new neighbor of R13-135 CC 42842 153.5525. A good old-fashioned FCC license search shows three active licenses to Mobiletech, all within the area.
