Do you listen to the nearest National Forest or Forests? Do you listen during the 1600 weather broadcast and hear the dispatcher say something similar to "The sale activity level for Jerseydale" (a fire weather data collection site on the Sierra National Forest I've used as an example) "is 3, the Project Activity Levels are: Area 532 Delta/Delta, Area 534 Echo/Echo Victor, Area 536 Charlie/Charlie." I can monitor the north end of the Sierra National Forest and the Inyo National Forest from my listening post or shack and hear this everyday.
I would like to know if anyone else listens to the Forest Service often enough to have heard this type of a broadcast on the other National Forests in California.
I'm not asking because I need to know how to decipher what is being broadcast, I just want to know if more than just the Sierra and Inyo National Forests are using this procedure.
For those of you who may have been hearing this type of a broadcast and have been mystified as to the meaning, don't despair, I have the answer you need! At the bottom of this page

is a general explanation of both. This link provides a more detailed explanation of the project activity level:

I would like to hear from anyone who has heard this being broadcast on any other National Forest except the Inyo and Sierra National Forests.
