Thanks for the feed! However it's been pretty quiet, and I thought I heard them tell a unit that Crown command is on Blue 10.

I've been listening to another streaming site on my cell phone since yesterday and they haven't skipped a beat. Repeater and simplex traffic from the start.

The little speaker on the left.

KTTV helo just showed a repeater site with the stucture engulfed in fire, reporting it was Mt. McDill.

When I posted that Hauser Peak burned over, I had heard it on LACFD Tac 19 from Barton Heliport and from the LA SRC - EOC on ATAC 1 ...

But seeing that video of McDill Peak...that sucks, they had a great cement apron for clearance but I guess embers landed on the roof or embedded into the structure? There was a comm about they could see smoke inside the structure from a remote video camera (maybe a burglar alarm?) prior them losing the stie.

I'm hearing a LOT of traffic on CDF-1, of all channels, tone 103.5. Which hilltop is that? Quite strong in the SFV.

 

[bryan_herbert]

Its supposedly Hauser Peak, thats what the LA County dispatcher was saying last night.

Hello Uplink:

Ok thanks, I got it all working.

While driving home from work Wed afternoon I noticed the smoke over the hills near the Crown Vally. Rushing home to turn on my scanners, I caught the Air Attack Supervisors talking with one another on how to make the water drops and do it all safely, on the two fires.

They gave the Air Attack crews the same frequency 169.200 MHz for the two fires. They then added 169.150 MHz to help relieve the conjustion. The Air Attack Supervisors then made sure all the air planes had the same Altimiter setting at 29.98 so everyones Altitude was supposed to read the same.

The performance of the Air Attack Supervisors was most impressive.
