Sacramento County Fire... “Operations Bravo 6”

[petbytes]

I’m not sure which of the Sacramento County Fire alpha tags are for B6 or B7 that are assigned based on SRRCS or SRRCS P25 that I downloaded into my scanner.

Most of the tags with 6 are listed as Tac A6 or Tac C6 or Tac D6, etc. But none with B

The "B" channels are for Sacramento City Fire. Sac County uses the "A", "C", "D", and "T" (training) channels.

Even though you may be listening to A1 (County Fire Dispatch), frequently there is a call where they are aiding the city and the operation will be on a B tac channel. Typically you'll need to monitor the city site to get the B tac channels.

Sac Metro, Cosumnes, and Folsom Fire use the Alpha.

Sac City Fire uses the Bravo.

The "B" channels are for Sacramento City Fire. Sac County uses the "A", "C", "D", and "T" (training) channels.

While not wrong...
Below is the general rule of thumb for assigning extra groups for the departments:

Groups A and C are for the County.
Groups B and D are for the City.

T is a shared Training group.

Example... When there is a special event in the County's area, they are usually assigned a C channel.
Special Events in the city usually get a D channel.

This is just a rule of thumb.


Also...as for who created the channel alpha tags (for FIRE) in the new P25 System....I would like to see where you got your information for that, or if you just felt the need to make your own "cool" channel labels. They should be the same "alpha tag" as in the Analog system.
