in your radio.  I will only outline the Talkgoup ID's and various conventional

Other Snohomish County LE Information

Stilliguamish Tribe (Arlington)
Stilliguamish Tribal PD is on 153.815 simplex, PL tone 151.4

Tulalip Tribes (Marysville)
UHF LTR system (452.1000MHz main) on a repeater located just west of the casino.  There is a second channel on the system and
I'll see if I can get the frequency the next time I'm at the site.  This is the same type of system that the Tulalip casinos 
use and they can inter-op with them now.  Possible future microwave link between the PD and casino systems. 

LERN Patch - The new Snohomish County radio system controlled by SERS (Snohomish Emergency Radio System)
has a 3 site simulcast LERN system (independent of the State Patrol LERN system).  This system can be patched
into pretty much any talkgroup for interoperability with agencies still on VHF.

Washington State Patrol - WSP Dispatch for Snohomish County is 155.655 (141.3 PL).  If you go up Hwy 2
past Skykomish, they use a split-frequency arrangement.  You must put in 154.770 (to hear Everett dispatch)
and 154.845 to hear mobiles. This is now a APCO/P25 transmission still dispatched on the 155.655 Mhz.
Car to Car for Snohomish County WSP is 154.935

Washington State Ferry - When in Mukilteo or Edmonds near the ferry terminals, put in 151.040 to listen
to holding area and load/unload operations.  Can be entertaining AND informative.  WSP VATS Troopers talk to
ferry workers on this frequency.  Ferries also talk to the Vessel Traffic System on 5A (156.250) and 14 (156.700).

Public Works: I find these frequencies to be very interesting during inclement weather.  Sometimes Local
Law Enforcement will use these for car to car chat.
Edmonds			- 158.925
Mountlake Terrace/Brier	- 155.145 (repeated, 127.3pl)
Lynnwood		- 155.865
Mukilteo		- 156.000
