These frequencies are used on an as-needed basis. Most talkaround activities are on lowband, however when out of the cruiser operations can be conducted on these channels. The MSP 800MHz repeaters are mostly located in Western Mass. I-TAC channels are also used in conjunction for inter-agency operations.
