I've noticed some new units on the air on the CDF channels in North County ... Namely 6411, 6471, 6691, and 6711. Seems like the Rincon (Harrah's Rincon Casino) and San Pasqual (Valley View Casino) Indian Reservations have gotten some new equipment and Pala got their own medic unit Anyone have any info on the new departments and units?
As far as unit numbering goes - this is what I have (all dispatched by CDF)
61xx - La Jolla Indian Reservation
62xx - (Mesa Grande Indian Reservation - Disbanded right?)
63xx - Sycuan Indian Reservation
64xx - Rincon Indian Reservation
65xx - Campo Indian Reservation
66xx - Pala Indian Reservation
67xx - San Pasqual Indian Reservation
I haven't paid too close attention, but have I heard Sycuan doing morning staffing with Cleveland on Forest Net? (168.7500)
New N County Indian Reservation Units?

Sycuan is definitely doing the morning lineup bit with Cleveland on Forest Net (168.7500) in the mornings. They chimed in with staffing on E6361, WT6365, and the Golden Eagle Hotshot crew when called this morning. They're dispatched by CDF so I'm not sure why they're doing the lineup unless the USFS is providing staffing for them?
I don't think the hotshot crew is dispatched by CDF. I've never heard them dispatched to a CDF run fire. They do have an agreement with the City of San Diego though, and sometimes respond to fires there, including one recently in Rancho Penasquitos. They also provide a helitack crew (Fly Crew 1) that works with Copter 1.
