I have my own rough listing - however I have noticed that there is cars all over the place at the moment
The ambo vehicles appear to have an administrative station for ownership / maintenance purposes but in reality they are all over the places, as the channel dispatchers shuffle vehicles and crews all over the metro area to balance supply and demand.

No doubt somebody will say "Oh it is too hard"(I get this all the time from some folk) but I have managed to get a rough list together as part of my obession in collecting Radio IDs
I have had one or two people say "oh that is roughly it but there is this and that .." but never acrtually tell me (and the readers) what are the corrections/additions are.

I've only just started taking an interest, i guess the easiest way would be to wait till around 6 when they call on for the night and just take notes for a while.

Just remember to, Car numbers are reused as well.

Their is a Albury Car 351, but their is also a Car 351 up the Far North Cost somewhere to.

351 on the North is at Tuncurry
Even more confusing is that there is two lots of 200's on adjacent Northern Ops channels - Gosford and Newcastle
At some point in the distant past the Central Coast must have been part of the Sydney Metropolitan ambulance number listing
However the numbering has never been adjusted when the Central Coast became part of Northern Ops

can say the same for the southern operations too. all far south coast and southern tablelands cars have a 200's callsign too, excepting the southern highlands which are a couple in the 800's(862 is one from memory) due to being part of sydney south west operations.
Wollongong, illawarra and shoalhaven cars have callsigns in the 100's
riverena and murray districts seem to be in the 300's
