Hospital Amateur(Ham)Radio Program

I have some updates in the frequency list for the Central Maine Regional Resource Center Hospital Radios. The plan is to have a set of common VHF frequencies in the channel memories for all Hospitals and Health Centers in the Region. Most hospitals have either a Kenwood TM-D710 or a TM-D700. Some Health Centers have the Kenwood TK-7160 which MUST be pre-programmed, aka NO VFO.
This is an older workbook with old frequencies.

Updated Hospital Workbook----Work IN progress

My chirp csv file for my Kenwood TH-F6A NOTE:I have some 220 MHz, Marine and Lewiston/Auburn area public safety frequencies in the file too.
The list did have the repeaters in frequency order but over time frequency/tones change.

The duplicates in the range of 101 to 128 are intended to be for the most important local frequencies, so they will be close together for quick switching and to provide a list to put in radios with limited number of memory channels.
The essential Androscoggin ARES/RACES Frequencies are in the range of 101 and 122 in generally decreasing order of importance. Except maybe 119 and 120
channel 119 is the US APRS Frequency, the pl tone is for Voice Alert
channel 120 is the Maine ARES Packet Frequency
