Ontario Fire Dispatch Backup

On Saturday I noticed that there was little to no traffic on the fire channels(system 9). I was listening to Blue (154.025) and I could hear dispatch and the mobile. So I started to scan systems 6/7 and I found these channels in use.

3984- Fire Dispatch
6032- Fire Command 1
5936- Fire Command 2
They were having problems on Saturday. I heard them say that the radio system is back up.

And last I checked they are still up. Just thought I'd pass on the information I found.

Those talk groups that you posted for System 6/7 are patches from the System 17, which is the Carbon Canyon fill-in system that the west end fire agencies can switch to if 9 goes down. 9 went down for a few hours on Monday as well.

What's system 17? I don't see it in the database.
