I know one or two if them were used at Hydrofest in Guntersville a few years ago. When I was still with the County, dispatch patched Morgan Co Rescue Squad and the FD TAC TG to an interop TG to communicate with HEMSI during an incident on the Tennessee River. That's probably been 5-7 yrs ago now.

Does anyone have an idea of what talkgroup 33475 could be? It popped up with radio ID 3041xxx getting a denied registration in my logs on one of the Baldwin County sites today. The TG doesn't show up in the database but it looks like it could be something in Marshall County; the radio IDs seem to be in that same range as well.

has anyone noticed that tcc is not able to be heard now on broadcastify?
ATCC should not be heard on Broadcastify, it is technically ambulance to hospital communications. Feed providers sending ATCC to their Audio or Calls feed are in violation of the terms of service.

I am publicly correcting myself here:

Perhaps I am mistaken, as TGID 2757 is available on the Broadcastify Calls platform: Main/Alabama Trauma Communications Center (ATCC) Group Calls Live

My guess is that since TCC is a state agency and not officially a hospital, it doesn't fall under the hospital umbrella. I have always blocked it on my feeds under the assumption that they would classify it as the latter.

Austin:
TCC is a central hub located in birmingham for the alabama state trauma network operated by the birmingham regional emergency medical service systems or BREMSS for short and UAB hospital. When a ems provider has criteria that meets the state's protocal for trauma/stroke. TCC is notified via telephone and or radio.The main goal is to provide allocations of the best transport locations to the states level 1 trauma centers located in Birmingham ,Huntsville, and Mobile. It has also been used in mass casualty incidents like the mass shooting in birmingham.
However it was not used in the april 27th tornado. TCC also mantains a dedicated computer system linked to each emergency room in the counties. The bremss region covers to let the providers which er is clear and or on diversion . what type of pt they can take example would be stroke/mental health emergencies. In the cases of non trauma/stroke providers would simply ask tcc who is on dervision and or who is clear for like mental health etc.

For trauma radio traffic would consists of squad 51 to tcc i got 1 i need to enter into the system. then the pt report of what happened.
Then vital signs (bp, pulse, resp rate coma scale and any on scene treatments, meds etc. TCC does not give treatment orders.
No pt information is given expect age and weight.

FYI to any Dothan/Houston County Broadcastify Audio and/or Calls listeners - due to a bug in the latest version of MacOS with SDRTrunk (macOS Tahoe · Issue #2283 · DSheirer/sdrtrunk) my feed is currently down.

There are discussions in the SDRTrunk Discord about fixes that I have not gotten around to yet. I have a Windows computer I use as a server, but it is old and does not like SDRTrunk at all... and even despite having the Audio feed setup on ProScan, it randomly kills the feed... So I have given up on using that computer as an option. Besides this MacOS update bug, the Mac Mini has run SDRTrunk quite well for over a month straight in a stretch.
