Crafton Fire in Yucaipa

[Starman918]

I am monitoring this fire and I am picking up faint simplex transmissions on 165.0000, no tone. I have heard them taking about the burn line but I can't seem to find a listing on this frequency. Can anyone help?
Thanks
Tom

I first started hearing fireground radio traffic on 165.00 MHz on August 31st after the Station Fire started on August 26th. I have been unable to locate an official channel name designator.

I live close to there...I took this pic from my backyard...I've got all the CDF frequencies in their own group that I can turn on separately....I hear quite a bit of activity there...this morning on the way to work it's still going....right above Yucaipa High School..

Great picture, 89GTA. Is it possible to share what frequencies you have in your group?
Thanks

Here are the frequencies, I pretty much programmed them all into 1 group and then scan all of them.
Usually most activity is on just a few but I wasn't sure which ones so I programmed them all...
Hope this helps...

My nephew spent most of the afternoon listening to the air ops, as the tankers were flying over our home in Redlands. I was chuckling at his excited call to me about the DC-10 flying close by, as he had heard the preparations some time before it actually made it's flight.

Another one hooked! He now is asking me about a handheld scanner for his birthday
