i live in henrico county va. we have a regional digital system here, covering a few juristicions. i have a question about how fire/rescue is dispatched, better yet alerted. one of the tac channals on the system is our FRAP activation. i guess the best way to explain it is that it seems simular to minitor pager activations, yet this is done on a digital system and on different tacs. i dont know what FRAP stands for, but i do you that it sets off buzzers and bells to the specific building that houses the unit that a call is going to be dispatched for. when i listen to the system, i here a digital burst of info on one tac, and then a moment later an alert tone and the dispatch on the "true" dispatch tac. my question is, is it possible to build my own little FRAP devise that will only activate when i want it to? im a member of a local rescue squad and sometimes it would be nice to just here the calls for my rescue squad rather than all the other fire calls that go out
