Training Exercise

[Jtolar]

Looks like I caught this half way through but sounds like they are running training exercise downtime. Several talkgroups that I haven't seen before. I have some recorded from DSDPlus and will try to post it in a later this evening.

TGIDs were 1451 - Incident Command, 1943 - Heavy Engines?, 1457, 1449, 1453 and 1943 - Hazmat. I heard them say "UAB is instructed to Lock down" and UAB police was dismissed.

Will try to follow up later with the audio.

It's Homeland Security training. They're using HS channels 1 thru 6. A lot of radio traffic, if you're interested. They're using a lot of drones, as well. Here's the HS release: News Release: S&T, Industry, Responders Partner to Evaluate Tech

For NGFR’s last operational experiment, the program has partnered with Birmingham-area public safety agencies in a HAZMAT and Search and Rescue incident response resulting from an earthquake scenario. This OpEx is affiliated with the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s 2019 Shaken Fury exercise hosted by FEMA and will focus on a simulated major earthquake in Memphis, Tennessee that will impact middle America including the state of Alabama. The OpEx is also an opportunity for Birmingham-area public safety agencies to enhance their mission capabilities in advance of the World Games which the city of Birmingham will host in June 2021.

Ahh... that makes more sense. I will try to record the next entirely. Here is the hours worth of recording I got earlier.

It's pretty funny hearing them say "Air Boss" to "Master Control".

It was on the AFRN. I was listening on the huffman tower.
