I was also listening to FR and DOF. I could hear them pretty good, i wasn't too far away from the fire. DOF had tons of units back there, even a helicopter that was scooping water out of a lake right next to us 1. It was a pretty big smoke plume, you could see it perfectly from 312, but once you got to 206/US1 it was a smokey mess. Glad they stopped the fire before it go to those peoples houses though.
