Heard some references today to channels 509 & 609, apparently being used as fireground channels. 609 is definitely GRN I believe TG 10135. But what is 509?

Cheers. Apparently had these programmed in my scanner. I'll have to try harder to get a hit sometime.

During the Hawkesbury Heights, Castlereagh, South Windsor and Marsden Park Bushfire's last week, 505, 510 and I believe 509 Fire Ground Channels were used, given the closeness between each of the fire grounds and the fact crews up at Hawkesbury Heights were boooommmmiiiinnnnggggg across the Nepean / Hawkesbury area due to their height advantage
