Port & Railroad

This page is becoming a work in progress as I add some of the various radios systems used at the ports in Savannah and Brunswick. I primarily listen to MilCom, but during slow MilCom times, I've been trying to figure out some of the radio systems. As part of that process, I've also seemed to have found a DMR TRS at Georgia Ports Brunswick that I can't find a license for. This has become an interesting project, and a difficult one, because I don't know all that much about how the port terminals operate. 

Savannah, as of 2021, has the third busiest seaport in the US and Brunswick has the second busiest ro/ro (roll on/roll off) seaport in the US, so Marine VHF and railroad frequencies can be quite busy in both areas. The lists below will give you a good place to get started in listening to the Savannah and Brunswick Ports.
