Lowell Mass - fireworks radio comms

heard on LPS 2 / TG 2273 via Broadcastify Calls

maybe around 6 pm on July 4 2023

Field Comm 60 did roll call with - SR1 + SR3 + Trinity (Ambulance)
Bike Patrol + UMass Lowell Bike Patrol + EM1 + Fire Prevention Detail
Launch Site + Fire Prevention Detail Bridge

earlier "Field Comm 60" did a radio check with "Field Comm Portable"

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

iirc Field Comm 60 is the communications van (state purchased) that is
based at a Lowell Fire Station and staffed by on-call staff (maybe
Lowell FD or Lowell 911)

https://massfiretrucks.com/Lowell%20FC60%202021.jpg - lettered as -
Lowell Fire Department Regional response Unit - FC 60 - Field
Communications Unit

Field Com 60 - 2004 Freightliner Field Communications Unit (acquired
by FCAM) - per massfiretrucks.com - ( FCAM = Fire Chiefs Association
of Massachusetts iirc - interesting )

neither massfiretrucks nor
https://firenews.org/mass/l/lowell/lowell.html show where FC60 is
housed - actually - neither show FC60 housed at a Lowell fire station
- thought we had seen FC60 listed at Lowell Sta 10 at one point -
vaguely remember that
