Saratoga Springs fire...

[NielsenSTL]

Looking at the frequencies in UCA, I see a talk group for Saratoga Springs fire dispatch: 41696. I've had this entered for a long time and I've never heard a transmission on it. I've left it on all day and nothing. I live in Saratoga and hear plenty on the police group, and plenty of chatter from all over Utah County. But still nothing on the SS fire talk group.

Anyone know if that is correct? Or do they communicate on something else? I'm guessing they have to.

Thanks...Mark

Pretty sure they are dispatched on Utah County fire. They call out station 261 & 262 and usually respond on Utah County FD2 (46272).

I've got that talk group in my "Utah County Fire" bank. I'll check it out and see what I hear there for Saratoga.

Thank you!

41696 is a car to car talkgroup that is rarely is used. Mostly training.
Fire is dispatched on 46240 (Fire 1) and usually respond on Fire 2 (46272). Sometimes Fire 2 & 3 are patched, usually overnight of when dispatch is short on manpower.
Fire 4 and 5 are for working incidents. Fire 4 north and Fire 5 south.
