This is outstanding :lol:

I noticed on most if not all of the fire lists, TRF is listed as group 5. I used to have this starting with TG 16, but several of those TGs are now used by other agencies. Does anyone know if the TRF is still valid, and did they change the TGs :?:

The second person (female) came out of the house, presumably to get away from the male suspect.

The file that it is looking for is the NEW firmware file that you should have also downloaded. It downloads as a .zip and generally puts it in a temp internet folder. Just keep the windows open when you download the file and unzip it, and you can point right to it regardless of where it is.

Thanks all. I have only been hearing it recently, and thought it might have to do with incident times, but did not think about the fatigue factor.

The more that is done to keep our first responders safe the better!!!

fire terminology

When a fire dispatcher tells a field unit that their 10 minute or 30 minute timer has elapsed, what are they talking about?

According to a note in the LEAN August meeting minutes, the CHP Chief stated that they plan to stay on RCS for the next 2-1/2 to 3 years, and plan on a new radio system within 5 years.

There were other vehicles in the way, and my old memory was not sure what the 2nd character was. That picture looks like the same rig.
Is it stationed at 28 or elsewhere?
Thanks.

No picture. It was only on scene for long enough to turn around and leave. It looks like the SDFD "Heavy Rescue" rig I have seen. It did not have any blue lights that I could see, which leads me to think it is also a FD rig. But I did not notice anything like "San Diego Fire/Rescue&qu...

XL1 - Bomb Squad

Does anyone know who the red Bomb Squad XL1 rig belongs to? It was sent to where I work yesterday, and all I could see of it were those markings, not any agency. The only occupant that got out was wearing a military type flight suit. I am up in the Miramar area, so I am not sure whether it came from...

Do the next best thing: I take down as much info from the vehicle as possible, like numbers other than the license plate, and then call the company or CHP if they are doing it on the highway. If they have a "safe driving" sticker (1800 Drive Safe) then I call that number also. I have done ...
