Have those portables ready.....

It would be a good idea (to save time in cases of excitement or chaos) have
several local 
repeaters pre-programmed into those HT's. Here are several I believe would 
be useful

UHF (70 cm)

443.200.......141.3tone......K2GE...Sayreville/skywarn/NTS.....
449.975.......141.3tone......W2LI...Tri-County ARS/New Jersey Network
444.500.......131.8tone......W3BXW...BEARS/PA & Green Brook linked
440.800.......141.3tone.....KA2AHS....Middlesex County OEM/RACES & (linked
to 224.560 MHz)

VHF (2 mtrs)

146.760......156.7tone.....K2GE...Sayreville/skywarn/NTS
147.285......141.3tone.....W2NJR..New Jersey Network
147.255......141.3tone.....W2LI....Tri-County ARS.....linked

(as well as our own RVRC systems)

For those with 222 MHz (1-1/4 mtrs) capabilities,

223.960....110.9tone.....K2ETS....ETSNJ linked to WAN
224.560....141.3tone.....KA2AHS...Middlesex County OEM/RACES (linked to 
440.800)
224.960....151.4tone.....KB2SEY....HAZLET OEM (Monmouth County)

Also, the broadcasters use two 'bands' for communications and coordinating
their mobile news-gathering units.  450.000 ~ 451.000 & 455.000 ~ 456.000
MHz.  When news-worthy events like disasters and accidents happen you can
listen-in on events sometimes before they 'hit the air'!
Remember that they are using 12.5 KHz channels.
Example;
450.2875-(WCBS-tv2).....450.3875-(WNBC-tv4).....450.5125.....450.7500....455
.1125-(FOX 5)......455.0500-(WABC-tv7)
                 others come up as events occur and usually during the
early-evening and late evening news periods.
