Capital Fire

[n7maq-1]

The new Capital Fire dispatch went live yesterday. A few new talkgroups, but all the old ones are still in use. The main talkgroups are/were SMF Ops 2, Valley Dispatch, and SMF Dispatch.

Sorry, due to my job I can't share any new info that is not heard over the air.

Some one in salem scanning will in time update the talk groups names.

 

[Fielder3]

So far, they still use the same dispatch talk group..
Capitol Fire Dispatch 24250
Capitol Fire 1 24251 (Old Salem Ops 2)

I"m waiting to see if the 800 Valley Dispatch 1 that Keizer FD and MCFD1 was moved over to Capitol Fire Dispatch group or not.

I'm running live free scan mode with a logger going 800 system wide. So far, all law channels and law patches seem to be the same. PCSO 1 Dispatch is 24012, MCSO 1 Dispatch is 24011 so no changes there. Oregon RR ADMIN, might want to go ahead change MCSO 3 and just make it 1 , since they've been dispatching on that talk group for 6 years now.

 

[Fielder3]

I will let this logger run all evening and see what fire ground talk groups.

 

[Baker845]

Keizer FD and MCFD1 should be using Capitol Fire Dispatch and talkgroups, my understanding both those agencies TGs were mixed in the new line up.

Keizer FD and MCFD1 should be using Capitol Fire Dispatch and talkgroups, my understanding both those agencies TGs were mixed in the new line up.

Correct, Keizer FD and MCFD1 are now being dispatched on "Capitol Fire Dispatch". As for the ops/command/ fire ground talk groups on 800, "Capitol Fire 1" is the old Salem FD Ops 2. I'm running my tracker ID program again today and see what it identifies.

Because Salem FD now operates the EMS side, they DON'T utilize System Status Management (SSM) whatsoever. So... there is no additional post to post moves for best city coverage like what Falck Ambulance did. All that type of radio traffic is gone. Level 0 is still common daily. I'm not hearing updated radio EMS traffic while units are enroute to calls. Maybe they just read their MDT's more.

 

[Fielder3]

Not much to update other than the last post. Agencies moved together utilizing Salem / Capitol Fire Dispatch are Salem FD, Keizer FD and Marion Co. Fire #1. Polk County stayed on VHF Central 1 and the West Ops channels.

Capitol Fire Dispatch 24250
Capitol Fire 1 24251 (old SFD 800 TRS Ops 2)
Capitol Fire 2 or Command 1? 24252 (old SFD 800 TRS Ops 3).
Capitol Fire 6 24255 (old SFD Ops 6 - Airports Ops) . I did hear Salem Airport tower and Foam 6 use this talk group still.
All enroute comms seem to be reduced. I'm not hearing much additional medical details by units enroute to calls. Command 1 or Capitol Fire 2 has been used for 1st Alarm responses.

MCFD1 TRS 800 Ops talk groups 51-54 are quiet
KEIZER FD TRS 800 Ops Talk groups 21-23 or 24 are quiet
VALLEY DISPATCH TRS 800 talk group 24280 is quiet

(I heard that Woodburn FD wasn't happy with Keizer FD naming their ops talk groups 21-24 because Clackamas County Fire Districts also use ops groups 22-28 which made it confusing for mutual aid.)

 

[Baker845]

In time, you will hear the the "quiet" talkgroups, they are part of the new line up, so give it time they will pop up.

Now I have to program my Unication G5 again arrrggg.. Love the radio, but haven't had to program it in a 2 years.

 

[Baker845]

So far, I have not found any updates on any of the on-line streams od fire audio. Dispatch is still dispatched and OPS 2 is Dispatch 1, but noone has OPS3/CMD 1 located anywhere. At least I haven't heard anything regarding large/ multiple alarms on any of the streams. Ideas?
