retrograde motion explained

https://youtu.be/piBBQTkoQ9c ... 4 minute video

and this is why the pope almost had galileo wacked

galileo is watching the stars ... he sees this retrograde motion and
it puzzles him ... somehow he figures out that the planets are not
orbiting around the Earth but actually around the Sun ... the pope is
not happy with Galileo

in the end ... the truth wins the day

and science is born

===========

from yt comments

Unbelievable! In Germany drivers set on the warning lights and the
following drivers send to the cars behind and so on. So the entire
highway slows down. Sometimes it sucks, especially when its a small
accident. But for e.g on this case, it would have prevent a multi-car
accident.

Fallback / backup channels across the USA

when a TRS crashes or a radio gets into a dead spot ... sometimes an
agency will use 'fallback' or 'reserve' or 'backup' channels

taking a peek around the Radio Reference pages .. we found the following ...

all of this is 800 mhz channels

Baltimore MD ... FD has 2 mobile only talkaround channels .. police has nothing

Fairfax County VA ... FD has 2 mobile only talkaround channels ...
police has nothing

Alexandria VA ... FD has 1 talkaround mobile only channel .... police
has nothing

Arlington County VA ... FD has 1 conventional repeater channel in
subways plus 1 mobile only talkaround channel ... police has nothing

North Charleston SC ... neither police nor fire has any backup channels

Charleston SC .. FD has 1 channel with 4 pLs ... maybe mobiles only
... police has nothing

Columbia SC ... FD has some simplex channels

Columbus OH ... county has 3 mobile only channels for interops ...
nothing else listed

Cleveland OH ... FD has 860.9875 M pl 67.0 "Direct 15"

Cincinnati OH ... FD has "Highrise Repeater 1 and 2" channels ...
857.2625R + 858.2625R ... FCC license shows 190 FB2T 35/35 + 90 M 2/2
with 20K0F3E and 16K0F1D ... no idea what that is supposed to
represent

Bottom line ... it looks like most agencys expect everyone to find
their way to 'ICALL 1' ... somehow ... and 'ICALL 1' probably will
never work inside any building ... so folks will need to find their
way to 'ICALL 1 Direct' ... should be fun

POTUS is there right now at a billionaires house

last night Nantucket FD had 2 alarm calls around ten pm ... Engine 1
took 14 minutes to get to their call ... something about 'they want
to cancel the call but now they are using a fire extinguisher on the
fire" ... Engine 4 took 11 minutes to get to their call ... possibly
Engine 4 responded with just 2 firefighters ... neither call turned
out to be anything of note .... no paging tones were heard on either
of these calls although paging tones were heard on the feed previously
when they needed an 'offduty' medic for an ems call ... so I am
guessing they had 5 folks in the fire station last night and 3
responded on Eng 1 and the remaining 2 responded on Eng 4

supposedly Nantucket FD has 41 fulltime staff ... I really need to
look at their budget

============

@Paulo Marreiros Although that being you must give way to emergency
vehicle, according to the highway code you must not break the law and
that means slowly budging at a red light signal is not what your
supposed to do, and in london you will end up with huge fine for
crossing a red light automatically.

........

I actually saw this in a UK video yesterday ... car with dashcam
was following a fire engine to a crash on a highway ... they both
came to a red light and shut off their sirens so as to NOT force the
cars in front of them thru a red light

bottom line ... europe could ban ALL scanners now on some vague

someone saw a sex video!' .... 'we must ban all scanners' ....
whats that you say? .... there is no connection between scanners and
the sex stuff .... just wait and see what happens

question ... why are people who can kick a ball with their feet so

HEMSJim they always operate under Helimed. When they are on Helimed 27
Alpha, they have priority over all traffic. Returning to base is
Helimed 27 Echo - they still have high priority as they need to get
back to base to maybe restock drugs and go to another call and Helimed
XX Zulu, which is basically like a normal helicopter priority for when
they are on test maintenance flights and not emergencies

Quickest I've seen a London HEMS take off is about 2:45.

wildfire dispatch in Alabama

from https://gacc.nifc.gov/sacc/resources/coopagr/2019-alabama-master-coop-fire-stafford-act-agreement-and-aop.pdf

if I understand correctly

USFWS does all of their own initial dispatch at the refuge level

State Forestry does all of their initial dispatch from an office in Montgomery

USFS does all of their own initial dispatch from an different office
in Montgomery (AICC]

AICC also serves as the coordination point between USFWS, USFS, State
Forestry and Southern Area

Southern Area Coord Center is located in Atlanta GA iirc

AICC orders all out of state resources from Southern Area .. except
for radio gear which is ordered directly from NIFC in Boise Idaho

Juan,there was a lot of pressure on this mission. KUSA 9 News Denver

interviewed the pilot. Additional pressure because high dollar real

new unit cost $400K plus $50K for equipment ... 1250 GpM and 1000 gallon tank

Georgia has new law requiring full size pumper in every fire station by 2025

Brewster Mass had a house fire

https://www.capecod.com/cape-wide-news/fire-breaks-out-in-home-in-brewster/

1117 am on Tuesday

list of all units and their assignments

no response times listed however

a generic guess is ... first engine arrived in 5 minutes ... Harwich
engine arrived in 7 minutes ... everyone else took 12 minutes or
more to arrive ... except maybe if the Brewster ladder had a crew,
then they might have arrived in 5 minutes also ... otherwise they
rolled after vols or off duty staff went to the station .. which
maybe took 5 to 11 minutes

see risk assessment

they have 25 travelers per day

so they say there is 25 chances for an incident every day

I disagree

lets say a traveler feels sick in the morning and requests a medevac
... the medevac launches and then gets cancelled when the party feels
better ... later in the day, the person feels sick again ... so
there is a 2nd launch

strictly speaking I am totally correct

whether it makes any difference to 'anyone' is another question

pumper going on a long run to a house fire as 2nd due

french captions for the radio traffic

I think they said

column of smoke in distance

engine at scene

chief at scene

doing interior attack

...............

this responding pumper was initially told to do backup with 2 inch
line but maybe they got changed

.................

"dispatch" = dispatcher

chief started his message with "chief ici" which iirc is "chief here"

engine might have started message with "engine ici" aka "engine here"
... kinda like when boston engine says "engine 24 calling" which
would be short for 'engine 24 calling fire alarm' and 'fire alarm' is
the boston dispatcher

boston area 470.0125 ???

470.0125 is listed as a multi band interops channel

anybody remember the lawrence mass gas explosions report?

anybody remember the lawrence massachusetts gas explosions report?

even 1 extra radio been purchased? (beside the state police moving to
digital radios]

USA Public Safety radio ... the current situation

USA Public Safety radio ... the current situation

sadly .. we are in total disarray

there are probably 100,000 different radio systems and 100,000
different channel loads

dead spots are everywhere

as the staff gets younger and younger, their tolerance of clunky
simplex radios falters away

Hollywood teaches the public that all radios work everywhere ....
even though that is total BS

brick sized radios can be replaced by chip sized radios ... but the
wheels of progress are frozen

its a sad sad thing

vaccinated are less virulent

So, a couple days after being infected, both vaccinated and
unvaccinated contacts had about the same amount of RNA in their noses.
However, after a couple more days, the vaccinated people no longer had
detectable RNA, but the unvaccinated people continued to have
detectable RNA for many days. One could hypothesize, therefore, that
an unvaccinated person is likely to be contagious for many more days
than a vaccinated person. Epidemiological studies do seem to support
this hypothesis.
