Cambridge MA PD had a "call box alarm"
52, David Yunez Park - dispatcher said "no one on the line that we
heard"
we did not notice any strange talkgroups show up on the cambridge trs
around that time - so apparently the call boxes do not transmit via
CoMIRS - not sure if they would have showed up on the openmhz feed
even if they were on the TRS
apparently the call boxes should allow 2 way comms - or they should
allow the dispatcher to hear anyone who is speaking
Re: No bfd feed at broadcastify now
- but broadcastify calls does have ch 1 to ch 4 listed - openmhz does
not have any working bfd feeds either it seems - bfd is listed on the
cambridge comirs feed at openmhz but it does not see to be working

a medical fitness screening
a drug test, and
a psychological exam.
Based on the results, we add you to a class at the Boston Fire Academy.

run card for massport hanscom
metro massport FD 5 and north district is the primary FG channel - not
sure what massport fd5 is - maybe that 460 channel - or some 800
channel - or the 800 trs - or comirs
hanscom afb fd is all over the run card - but no phone number is given for them
masspport ftf3 might come from logan airport
not sure if armstrong or action is the afb ambulance right now
notice that ambulances go right to MCI on 2nd alarm
no coverage is listed
cambridge rescue is on the 3rd alarm - thats interesting
you can ask lousiville about striking a 3rd alarm
apparently there are lots of Epsteins out there
china and russia and everyone are running sordid deals
boston fire buff newsletter from 2021
1978 - arlington had 2 big fires at same time
1932 - west concord fire station burned - no mention of hanscom fd
no hanscom on the arlington fd 10 alarm card
arlington and lexington must jhave a new deal - both show 1 engine on
working fire to each other
which is very strange - cant imagine lexington going to a working fire
in east arlington where cambridge and somerville can both beat them
with 5 engines and 10 ladders or whatever
lexington took 10 minutes to travel 1 mile to the working fire on
appleton place in arlington the other night

lincoln mass - 10 alarm metro card from 2013 - and more
there is a word document run card that downloads
2013 - hanscom engine to cover lincoln on 3rd alarm - and to the fire
on the 4th alarm
==================
back story - hanscom afb has had a fully paid FD probably back to the
1940s - they also went to calls on the civilian side of the airport
and into north lincoln - dont think they ever went to ems calls in
north lincoln though - even though that was a 8 minute run or more for
the lincoln fd ambulance
for many years - in the 1970s - lincoln would send 1 firefighter with
the ambulance - and 1 cop to drive
massport put a dry chemical truck at hanscom sometime in the 1980s -
not sure who staffed it - maybe 1 massport mtnce man or maybe 1
massport firefighter from logan airport
many new blds went up in northern Lincoln thru the years - and the
military stopped flying planes out of Hanscom - but the Air Force
keeps the base open to run reasearch programs for electronics and/or
coordinate with MIT Lincoln Labs
MIT has never had a FD at Lincoln Labs afaik
Hanscom used to have a clinic ambulance - but that probably went away
in the 1980s - local private ambulances have been hired to cover
Hanscom AFB since then
Lexington Mass - 10 alarm card - 2025 # 2
hanscom is on the 3rd alarm
first save at wayback machine

their 2019 run card does not show any working fire listing -

- thats the 2013 run card actually
weston mass 10 alarm run card
no hanscom on there
first save at wayback machine
Hanscom Mass - info
listed Hanscom AFB approx 4 times - once under D6 and once under D14
and once with foam trailer and foam truck
neither massfiretrucks nor firenews.org shows any crash trucks nor
foam trailers at Hanscom AFB FD at this time - we believe they have
been all removed within the last 2 to 5 years - maybe shortly afetr
MassPort moved 2 of their crash trucks to Hanscom
Hanscom AFB FD operates two 4 man engines and a 2 man rescue and 1
chief officer 24/7 per firenews,org
no Hanscoms FDs were called on the D14 rollcall today nor yesterday
presumbably the Hanscom AFB FD operates on the Hanscom AFB TRS at 380 mhz
presumbably the Massport Hanscom FD operates on the new Massport 800
mhz TRS at Hanscom
Hanscom AFB FD has regularly shown up at multi alarm fires in nearby
towns over the past 50 years - they used to cover several line boxes
in the north end of Lincoln also - plus probably Concord and Lexington
line boxes also - plus maybe Bedford line boxes - they have also sent
their heavy Rescue truck to major Route 2 crashes iirc

all dispatchers were heard except maybe 1 or 2
Nashoba Valley RECC answered for Boxboro and Hudson
Holbrook RECC answered for Sudbury and Sherborn and maybe Holliston
there might be another 'B' agency
Hanscom was not called and didnt answer - neither the USAF FD nor the
MassPort FD
Providence RI 2024 FD Annual Report
all fire companies and all ambulances (The Rescues) are ALS
no mention of response times
they got GPS / AVL with CAD tie in for faster and better dispatching
mutual aid stats are strange - huge mismathes between 'in' and 'out' -
but they dont define what a 'response' is - 8 hour fire call vs 1 hour
medical call
etc

Re: gloucester mass had a fire at 5 pm today
right next door to HQ - C6 reported fire showing before Eng 1 even
arrived
first alarm was E1 E2 L1 R1 Car3 - for the reported "structure fire" -
with Eng 3 moving up to cover HQ
Engine 1 went onscene and immediately declared a 'working fire'
Engine 3 then rerouted themselves to the fire - and Eng 4 started to
move up to HQ - and Rockport Eng 3 and Beauport 93 mah=gically
appeared
not sure why "County Red" was mentioned as FG channel - they did not
go to a 2nd alarm - unless they secretly call a 2nd alarm for a
working fire - damn - now we have to check the county freq and see
what they said
Car 1 i apparently the Big Kabola - whatever that is - assuming its a
good thing - DA CHIEF
essex county mass - radio SOP
bottom line - first alarms and line boxes stay on local channels
2nd alarms and higher switch to the county FG channels
note - emergency buttons might not work at all on the county FG channels
YIKES YIKES YIKES
also - undefined - what channel are units supposed to be on when they
are halfway thru a long moveup?
Re: gloucester mass had a fire at 5 pm today
but sne calls it FG red
rrdb calls it - Essex County Mutual Aid Fireground Red CH 14 UHF
so which is it?
during the Gloster fire - both Beauport Medic 93 and Rockport Eng 3
were talking with the Gloucester FD dispatcher - they seemed to be on
Gloster FD Ch 1 (470.40 R) - we were listening via Broadcastify so it
was hard to determine exactly what channel they were on - but it
sounded like a digital channel - and it sounded the same as all the
other comms that we heard from the Gloster FD dispatcher when talking
to his Gloster units
other radio traffic heard - "C6 to Headquarters' - fire is knocked
down but continue the working fire assignment - "Engine 3 reponding" -
"Car 3 at scene, C5 in command" - Engine 2 - "Deputy" - Engine 4 to
cover - C8 was female on Engine 3 - maybe a captain - Car 1 - maybe
the Chief - Rescue 1
we have not listened to the very beginning of the fire yet - we should
probably do that - first alarm might have been E1 E2 L1 R1 - and then
1 engine to cover - and then working fire got 1 more engine and
beauport and rockport - something like that
yes - lets make a mtn out of a molehill - lol
Essex County Mass has 4 crossband repeaters
one of the freqs is aways 153.83
the other freq is a UHF FG channel - apparently either 487.3875 or
460.6125 or 465.6125
Rehab 5 and Georgetown FD have 2 of the crossband repeaters - not sure
who has the other 2
they are dispatched on all 2nd alarms
we have never heard them mentioned or used
2024 SOP
if everyone in Essex County has dual band radios now - then these
crossband repeaters are not needed
FCC designation for these reoeaters is either MO3 or FB2T afaik - not
sure what the difference between those 2 are - maybe FB2T can have a
higher antenna

if there is a huge fire in boston and a huge fire in springfield mass
- who gets to decide if all the mutual aid should go to boston or
springfield? is the state fire marshal the final abritrator of
resource allocation? or is it first come first served?
what if a huge fire breaks out in boston and worcester units are sent
to boston - and then 15 minutes later a huge fire breaks out in
springfield - at that point - the worcester units should obviously be
rerouted to springfield - and cape cod units should be sent to boston
- but who makes that call? the state fire marshal?

1713 - explosion reported on airport channel 2
omg - did ang fd wait 7 minutes before responding ? why? dont they
respond with the airport fd day in and day out? or do they just work
on holidays? or something weird like that
there are 3 fire stations at the airport - airport PSP crash station +
ang FD + Louisville FD Engine 1
the PSO FD might not have any structural units - they might hjave 3
arff units and 1 heavy rescue
ang fd apparently has 1 heavy recue + 1 arff + 1 tanker + 1 mobile command post
lousiville sta 1 just has engine 1 - a structural pumper
would be interesting to see who responds to medical; calls in the area
- would be interesting to see who responds to fires at the terminals
and airport blds
any chance that UPS has their own FD hidden away somewhere? that would be crazy

Re: some airport radio traffic from the louisville crash
were all alerted at the same time
we have heard the city radio traffic and the county radio traffic -
city initially sent 1 engine and 1 ladder - county initially sent 3
engines and 2 ladders approx - airport psd sent at least 1 crash truck
(crash 49 iirc per ground control freq tape) - and ang fd apparently
sent 4 rigs and 8 people
one major issue here is that all 4 agencies apparently operate on
different radio channels - and not all units have AM aviation radios
of course - maybe just the airport authority fire trucks and the ang
fire trucks have AM aviation radios
so maybe 2 or 3 major issues here - 4 different dispatch systems -
multi different agencies on the first alarm - multi different radio
channels - (Fire 1 TG + Fire 5 TG + airport pso freqs or TGs + ang
freqs - plus - ground control channel plus tower channel plus maybe
departure channel) - plus airport ops chanels and UPS channels and PD
channels and ambulance channels - all in use on the initial dispatch -

134.05 is not the normal Tower freq. 134.05 is the 'Discrete Emergency
Freq'. 134.05 might normally be the Logan ramp controller frequency.
So this radio procedure is a compromise between following 'normal
procedures' - and - using a dedicated single channel for emergencies
at Logan. The procedure is not overly burdensome on anyone. Right?

FDNY 5th alarm fire video
11:00 on the tape - 2 seconds of water and the fire goes right out
maybe hoarding conditions blocked then from getting into the apt
putting the wet stuff on the red stuff - fire attack - water
application on the fireground
using 2.5 inch hose line at maybe 250 gallons per minute
we are assuming that the radio message at 1100 said that they could
not get into the apt from the inside

FY2025 budget for woburn mass
all cops and firefighters are listed
PD pays 15K to NEMLEC and $5K to Tactical Force ???
FD has 3 captains who are mechanics - really?
FD will earn $9.7M in ambulance fees (maybe that is 50% shared with
Armstrong - maybe not)
FD spends $130K on apparatus mtnce and $150K on ambulance mtnce - really?
MetroFire fee is $5K
DPW has 2 mechanics also
Cemetery Dept has 5 FT staff plus 3 summer helpers who get $4K each -
dept also spends $100K on landscaper services
PD budget has no dispatchers and no mechanics - but there are approx 5
clerks - are they really dispatchers? or does PD use Captains as
dispatchers (150K each)?
FD budget has no dispatchers - they must use firefighters to work as dispatchers
woburn mass als rfp from 2023
nov 2023 to nov 2026
each unit must have mobile and portable radio and avl
response time info looks bad - terminology looks bad - dont think they
want an average of 8 minutes 90% of time - what they really want is -
for 90% of all calls the response time should be under 8 minutes
think of it as 2 bell curves
one would have its peak at approx 7.5 minutes
the other would have its peak near 4.5 minutes
those are 2 very different bell curves
one of those response time statements is pure gibberish with a
whopp[ing honking typo right in the middle
newton mass fire box 232 in 2022
craft street by DPW
to activate - pull the top of the little clear window toward you - it
arcs down / there is a hinge at the bottom of that white piece - then
pull the little white hook inside straight down - ( you can barely see
the little white hook in this photo )
you should hear the box start clicking - and then a couple of minutes
later you should start hearing some sirens - a cop car might pull up
first - if they still respond to street boxes in Newton
some airport radio traffic from the louisville crash
rescue 46 and chief 3 are apparently fire units - (going to battle)

august 2025 article on airtanker drops
airtankers are 12% effective - or something - (how did they get that number?)
maybe their analytical framework fell completely apart
the bottom line question is - is it worth it to use airtankers?
if they only work on shrub fires - then why use them on forest fires?
the airtankers might be a 100% total waste - we have talked about this
before - if you can only do 1 drop per hour - and the fire completely
rebuilds its fire front every 30 minutes - then the tanker drops will
never accomplish anything useful - its called REALITY
Berkshire County map has been updated
added a bunch of stuff
Berkshire School really needs to get a minipumper and/or ambulance -
they have plenty of staff etc - they are approx 3.5 miles from any
fire station and they have 450 high school students - damn they could
be first due in half of the county on a Monday morning - buffys mom
and dad would never allow that - they could let all the hispanic
custodians staff the fire truck - lol - that would be cool

10 people on staff - led by a Supervisor and a Lead
based at the fire station - who also has the business office staffed - ???

info about san bernardino county fire alerting system
the system automatically switchs back and forth between 'IP' alerting
and 'over the air' alerting as needed
we think of it this way - there are 2 ways to get a message from the
dispatch office to the various fire stations - the first method is the
IP system - the IP system can use fiber optic links or maybe microwave
links to move dispatch messges from the dispatch office to the fire
stations - the 2nd method is the 'over the air paging' method - this
second method uses tones or data blurps that can be heard going over
various channels (perhaps at 150 mhz or 450 mhz or 800 mhz) - folowed
by a voice message
southern california
not sure what westnet is exactly - maybe the county dispatch center is
split into 2 parts - east and west - maybe thats it - maybe they
actually have 2 dispach centers operating as 1 combined dispatch
system
