Stanly County

I'm receiving what I think is Stanly County, NC. I'm using a Pro-82 so I don't have a PL tone. I've heard one dispatch so far that is clear enough to understand.

Highway 24/27
Medic 31
Squad 34

I've attached a ZIP file containing the pager tones and the first part of the transmission. I had to cut a lot of space between the tones and the beginning of the transmission in order to get it small enough to upload. I've never tried uploading one of these before, so I hope it works.

if it's not stanly it sounds a little like iredell county the biggest problem is that 24 27 stretches from harnett county to cabarrus county.

I forgot to mention that this is being received on 154.3100

Just heard this:

"Medic 21, Squad 56 breathing problems, Charlie response, 13227 Penion? Rd., cross streets are 52 South and Will Rd."

I did some searching. Will Rd. @ Hwy. 52 is showing on the map as Norwood, NC. Station 56 is the station number for Norwood City FD.

from the database Stanly County, North Carolina (NC) Scanner Frequencies and Radio Frequency Reference 154.31 is the main fire dispatch of stanly perhaps they link the fire and ems channel when dispatching the call

Stanly County has two primary frequencies they use for dispatch

154.310 Fire & Rescue

155.040 Ems Dispatch

They also use Motorola Reed Group 6 paging tones for alerting pagers.

Hope this helps

i just cant figure out why stanly tones have the dtmf dial up before the tones drop. i like it, it just seems either behind or advanced in times.

The DTMF Tones you hear are used to set off the sirens at the station being called.

It is a strange system.

If you listen to Rowan County, some of the stations there are using the same set-up.

It might be something to do with the communications director.

I know the Communications Director at Stanly County is now the Communications Director for Rowan County.

i thought that was a reason, i know in gaston the sirens are tone operated

Same for Cabarrus

I have a Minitor III set up for Mt. Pleasant Fire.

The thing would alert for first responder calls and would also alert when the fire siren was set-off as well.

Now all I get is the pager tones. Quess it has something to do with the new dispatch consoles at communications.

Oh well when I have more time I will get one of the fire department pagers aand play around a little bit with it.
