Reno Fire New Frequency

[DTservice]

Hello all, I've noticed that every so often reno fire will be on scene of say a fire alarm and request a channel, then they go to tac 1 and say "switch to" I think they say "A Fire D" or something like that, anyone know anything? is this is the first of the encryption?

I haven't noticed that recently. Everything I have heard has been Gold. Although there is 8 FIRE D, which is the state mutual aid for fire (800 mhz conv frequency).

They might be saying 8 fire d, I'll add that to my list, I've only heard it twice both on fire alarm calls

That's interesting. There may be trunked site issues. I heard REMSA repeaters were down after the big storm, so maybe agencies are trying to use conventional stuff to make it easier

For sure, Storey County repeaters were all out of wack for weeks. They must have just tuned them as I am finally picking them up on the XTS again.

They are. They have a Mulicast system set up on P25 conv through all three (maybe four) of their repeaters.

Also, I just noticed this morning that SCSO has changed their unit identifiers to a 3-4 digit callsign instead of the David, Sam, Charles set up from before.
