worcester mass - dispatch type info for FD

https://www.snewiki.com/wiki/index.php/Worcester_Department_Information

ems assist calls are usually referred to (on the radio) as 'first
responder' calls - in that they are providing 'ems fire response'
service

a typical dispatch would be voiced as - 'Eng 12, first responder, 62 Main St'

therefore - most medical calls get a response of one ambulance and one
fire truck and maybe one cop

interesting that they have 1 + 0 and 0 + 1 and 1+1+1 and 2 + 1 + 0 and
2 + 1 + 1 and 4 + 3 + 1 response levels - but no 1+1 response level

During a fire - Dispatch 1 is used as the fireground, - Dispatch 2
becomes dispatch

Pros - no more fumbling to change channels during the heat of the battle

Cons - maybe some will forget to switch to Dispatch 2 - and end up
accidently interfering with Channel 1 comms
