Can anyone confirm or deny that Sac City Fire is now using the new talkgroups exclusively? I haven't heard anything on their "old" talkgroups for a day or two, but I am hearing them on the new ones. So far, every other agency that I monitor, Metro Fire, SPD and SSD are still all using their old talkgroups.
It's actually kind of awkward, as I'm sure most of you know, because now I am monitoring Sac city TRS, Sac county TRS, and both sites of the SRRCS system.
The "Old" system is still up and running concurrently with alot of the "New" Talk Groups.
Sad to say, I monitored the Mobile Home Fire (at 0807 hours) around the 3100 block of Florin Road, which ended up with a child fatality (3 to 4 year old) and displaced family members.
Thankfully, the chaplains and the CISM teams were sent out to assist the victims, be it the family, the fire personnel and any other public safety agency personnel that was involved in the incident.
On another note - As for the Fire Dispatch system on the county side it is not just Metro Fire, it includes the following agencies:
SRFECC is a JPA managed by the following Fire Agencies:
Elk Grove Fire Department
Folsom Fire Department
Galt Fire Protection District
Sacramento City Fire Department (on Fire "B")
Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District
In addition, we also provide contract dispatch services for:
Courtland Fire Protection District
Herald Fire Protection District
Walnut Grove Fire Protection District
Wilton Fire Protection District
Keep an eye on their website (
www.srfecc.ca.gov) as they are working on a link to their CAD system (Computer Aided Dispatch).
