I forget who posted these to rec.radio.shortwave but I found
them very useful on my recent trip...
Stuff in "<<<" ">>>" are my own personal comments.

|Subject: Disney Frequencies Galore
|
|OK, for all of you guys that can't put your radio down when you go on
|vacation - The (un)official list of Walt Disney World Frequencies.
|(I'll give you a hint... I work at the Magic Kingdom, so this is about
|as official as it gets.) All of these frequencies are confirmed; They
|were obtained from WDW Radio/Audio Central and traffic has been heard on
|each frequency.
|
|Anything with a * indicates simplex and probably very low power. (The
|radios we use at 20,000 leagues are only 1 watt for operators and 4
|watts for leads)  If you don't hear anything, don't yell at me about it,
|you just aren't patient enough!

|462.625   Operations 3 (Magic Kingdom)
|461.600   Operations 5 (Disney - MGM Studios)
|464.600   Operations Simplex *  <<<quite often heard people on the
                other repeaters say "go to simplex" and you can find they
                went to this freq for an extended "short range" conversation>>>

                                 <<<on their Ops-3 freq>>>

|Also, Disney is steadily moving a lot of stuff to a 12 channel trunked system
|in the 800's. Currently, Security, Resorts, and Watercraft (plus some V.I.P's)
|use the system. I've seen the charts, and most of the traffic will move there
|within the next few years. Also, Disney should be setting up a 900's trunked
|system also. So, many of the non-theme park frequencies may be moving there. 


<<<ONE MORE THING; If you have a transceiver with PL receive; 
   all the repeaters and simplex use the same PL 162.2 Hz so you may
   want to put that in so nearby businesses on same freq are not heard.>>>

Enjoy...
