buckleye valley, sw area fire channel

[E5911]

What are the southwest area fire units using instead of the old Blue 12 ?
for FIRE, I assume A13 Southwest, Can someone confirm?
Second question, is Gila Bend being dispatched by PHX Alarm?

Yes, Tonopah and Harquahala Valley can usually be found on A13, 154.4300, with a DCS of 654. Buckeye & Buckeye Valley use A13 too, but also use channel 9, 155.6700, with a DCS of 624 at times.

Gila Bend is likely being dispatched by Rural-Metro, but on 153.9950 now. Their old license for 155.0550 expired a few years ago, but no one has been down there to confirm the new one, so the database has not been updated to reflect that. I did post about it in a thread here a couple of weeks ago.

RWC dispatches on various A-deck and K-deck channels for FD calls. Example - the recent building collapse would usually go out on 8 [west] or 9 [south], but it was worked on 6 [NW]. Much depends on transceiver status, amount of traffic, 911 & dispatch operators [RWC is rather short of both right now and qualified hires are difficult to hire and retain], etc.

Gila Bend? Still dispatched by Rural-Metro as far as I know.
