155.205 mhz user?

I just plugged in an old scanner with freqs I put in years ago & no idea what they were, no alpha tags. I'm getting weak readable traffic on 155.205, RR has listings for an OC ambulance company that supposedly no longer uses it, and Coachella. Whoever it is uses military phonetics, so I'm thinking OC, but both seem like they are too far to hear from my locations in east Hemet by the mountains.
Any ideas?

That frequency actually looks like the dispatch channel for Coachella Valley AMR units, but I'm not 100% sure.

sp,
155.205 is still in use by Doctor's Amb in OC. They did stop using it a few years ago and went to 152.99. After a year or so they were back on 155.205 and are still using that with a PL of 156.7.
My logs show that 155.205 is also used by AMR in the Palm Springs area with a PL110.9. If you can get a PL readout you can tell which one you're hearing.

Thanks, Mike, you are the best! I'm sure it is OC, as they use military phonetics, Riv Co does not. I will confirm with the PL though. Thanks again!

I knew about Palm Springs AMR but not the Doc's Ambulance.
