Anyone listening to TFD right now?

It's a good example of why the district fireground TGs should be used.. District 1 is investigating an alarm at OSU Medical Center (TRMC) and clogging up side A (35856), main is having a hard time dispatching other calls :roll:

B platoons car 641 is bad about that, and there are a few other chiefs that dont regroup their companies on large assignments. I wonder why the captains cant tell the assignment to regroup?

This is exactly what I was talking about back in this thread:

The general discussion back then was that it was too confusing to switch everyone and they usually don't need to anyway. But I never did understand how it can be so easy and so automatic for a department like BA but for Tulsa it's a no-can-do.

And I'm also still curious why Bixby and Glenpool FDs don't use the trunked system.

I WANT ANSWERS, PEOPLE!!!

heck, if I was at the console, I'd use the dynamic regroup to make them go to a fire tac. I bet alot of it has to do with unwillingness to change and people's egos

So how does that work..

it allows the dispatcher to change a radio's talkgroup from the dispatch end; the only problem is the user cannot over ride it.

So if the unit needs to back to the Disp. T.G. He has to tell Disp to do it Right??

exactly, they'd be unable to switch back over themselves.
