Basically: Program your radio to 451.9000 MHz with a PL tone of 91.5 and 12.5 kHz spacing to reach the Black Rock City 911 Dispatch.
This is limited to 4-watt power output (typical limit of most handheld radios). Below is a generic programming guide and of course, our wonderful Burning Man community is full of people with a desire to help.
