tricky one for baltimore city fire

I've been trying to find the frequency for A16 for baltimore city fire. On almost all the city radios (except officers) the channel is blocked out. If something really bad happens on the fireground, that's the channel they go to. Any help?

P.S. it's not in the database

I just looked in the Database and TalkGroup A16 is listed under the Baltimore City TRS as TG# 2064 and it's use is listed as "Admin". Is that what you are looking for? If it is an admin TG maybe thats why it's not in the troop's radios and only in the officer's.

That's the answer. A16 is programmed into radios assigned to Battalion Chiefs and higher only. It is not an operations talk group. It is used to Admin purposes only.
