EMS (including Medflight and other helos)
Ocean Rescue (including all beach lifeguards except for the town of Kill Devil Hills; supervisors only)

Additionally, any new or non-programmed talkgroups are still picked up, but without alpha tags. Only encrypted law enforcement traffic and Dare County school system (buses) are NOT scanned on this sytem.

NC VIPER (Bodie Island site) is also openly scanned during and after major events or disasters to catch local emergency managment and statewide rescue groups. This system is otherwise normally locked out as its consists of mostly NCSHP and NC Wildlife comms.
