uhf tac is 458.025 apparently - per
https://www.radioreference.com/db/browse/ctid/606

maybe what happened was - united mechanical got a call via their
company channel that a plan was in trouble - so then they went on
458.025 to give ohare FD a quick headsup before the plane declared an
emergency on the atc channels

Medford Mass FD shows 2 FG channels

per the Feb 2026 MetroFire Ops Guide

Medford FD is listed as having 2 FG channels

primary is "Medford Fireground Alpha"

2mdary is "MetroFire North Alpha"

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

Medford FG Alpha might be 460.2125 - have not confirmed that yet

in the past their FG might have been 'MetroFire Central FG'

neither RRDB nor SNE have a listing for the 'Medford FG Alpha' channel yet

maybe there is a 'Medford FG Bravo' channel also - just guessing -
maybe they use 460.2125 and 465.2125 in simplex / single channel mode

wellesley Mass FD - new radio channel

channel 2 - 483.625 R - DPL 065 - used as covering channel (for mutual
aid units moving up into wellesley / covering in vacant stations /
relocating / filling in )

it is the covering channel per the feb 2026 metrofire ops guide

it is 483.625 R DPL 065 per rrdb and sne

it is ch2 per all 3 sources

not sure how boston or fdny handles this - probably the same - if the
caller reports seeing smoke or smelling smoke or seeing flames -
inside a bld - then its full response time

electrical arcs from electric plugs - thats right on the line between
something and nothing

the good news is - they generally dont blast the sirens when people

here we go with trump and the crime figures

"Pam Bondi is a Great American Patriot and a loyal friend, who
faithfully served as my Attorney General over the past year," Trump
announced in a Truth Social post. "Pam did a tremendous job overseeing
a massive crackdown in Crime across our Country, with Murders
plummeting to their lowest level since 1900."

and since she did such a great job I am firing her ass

makes perfect sense

we double dare anyone to ask trump to explain why the murders have
dropped so low

remember - murders skyrocketed sorta under trump 1 - and then biden
started to bring them back down - and you can probably bet that any
drops in 2025 were due to actions by biden - not trump and his clown
show

Re: [sme2] the next steps in the iran war

seeing that bondi was just fired - this would seem to indicate that
trump took a huge bribe to attack iran - he wanted bondi to bury it -
she refused - he fired her

or he wanted her to steal the upcoming elections somehow and she refused

possibly there is just 1 PSAP in the county - and these are the
agencies that dispatch themselves

everyone else is dispatched by the county 911 center / ACES 911

only 3 of them dispatch all local services

what about the international airport and the military base and the

info on allegheny county penns

https://apps.alleghenycounty.us/website/MuniList.asp - list of 130
local governments in Allegheny County - includes listings of police
chiefs, fire chiefs, ambulance providers, square miles millages,
topography median home values etc - only 6 share same names - Baldwin
+ Elizabeth + Springdale

each one of these local governments has their own police and fire and
ems - except that approx 20% of them are served by a regional PD (not
the sheriff or county pd) - 10% are served by multi FDs - 35% are
served by regional ambulance services

unknown exactly how many do first responder service - but we can
figure it out - take the big list of total ems providers and subtract
out the ground ambulance providers- btw the state list of EMS agencies
is really lame - same for the county regional ems council - website
not updated for 3 years - yikes

looking at radio reference - there seems to be 50 police dispatch
channel and 75 fire dispatch channels and 50 ambulance dispatch
channels - plus a ton of backup repeaters and simplex channels -
mostly on UHF - with most DPWs being on VHF

maybe 50% of fire stations are staffed by volunteers - maybe 15% of
ambulance stations are staffed by volunteers - and of course the cops
shoot any police volunteers that they find

unknown how many fire stations actually have staff onsite at any given time

county PD patrols the 2 big airports and the 9 county parks and the
county blds downtown

county sheriff runs the jail maybe

we asked google AI if there were any fire districts in the county -
they said yes but did not give a SINGLE example - so they meant NO
actually - https://share.google/aimode/vOGcMrar3ROL3xgyS - if we check
this listing of 130 local governments above - we bet that there are
ZERO fire millages listed - each local govt seems to have just 3
miilages / tax rates - county + school + local

note - none of the FDs serve more than 1 local government - or maybe 1
or 2 do - but generally speaking - it seems that very very very few
FDs cover outside their home municipality

note - there are city and township and borough governments listed -
there are also two MUNICIPALITIES listed - Bethel Park and Penn Hills
- not sure what that means

only 6 of the local govts share a common name - Baldwin + Elizabeth + Springdale

many of the local govts have very similar names - but only 6 share
the exact same names - its not like Illinois with Bumville City and
Bumville Twp all over the place

worcester fd has station 51 tones

worcester mass fd just sent 2 engines and a ladder and a chief to a
fire alarm system activation call

before the dispatcher started to speak on the fire dispatch TG she
sent out a 2 tone pager signal and it sounded exactly the same as the
two tone pager signal that was heard on the TV show Emergency! for
Station 51

coincidence? I think not!

(Hyannis FD does this also iirc)

BTW - the dispatcher assigned the assigned units to Ops Channel A -
she mentioned that on the 2nd reading of the initial dispatch iirc

this is not a list of all ambulance services - maybe (there might be
some transfer only services that are not listed here)

this apparently is a list of designated 911 transport agencies

this is not a list of ems first responders - because wexford fd

bronto skylift has 3 high fire models

https://brontoskylift.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/F-HLA_EN.pdf

81 meter + 91 meter + 104 meter

all are approx 4 meter high for travel height

all are approx 16 meter long for travel length

all can flow 1,000 gpm via nozzle

all can carry 500 kg in basket

but the big one weighs 62 tons and the two smaller ones weigh 48 tons

looks like you add 4 stories in coverage each time as you step up
between the 3 models

this is 1 of the 340 foot snorkels

https://brontoskylift.com/product/f-hla-fire-rescue-high-rise-aerial-platforms/.

that big photo at top of page - its says 104 on the base of the boom -
thats the 340 foot model - its huge

it could probably get down boylston st and cambridge street and
tremont street and mass ave in boston - but thats about it - probably
could not turn off onto any side streets - maybe could not go over any
bridges

however - there are 2 small models - F90 and F81

F104HLA - this apparently means - fire 104 meter high level aerial

from the photo at top of page - Featuring the world's highest aerial
platforms, the Bronto Skylift HLA range represents the ultimate in
high-rise rescue and firefighting. More than 200 HLA units have been
delivered around the world to cities like Bangkok, Brasilia, Buenos
Aires, Cairo, Moscow, and Taipei, to name a few.

(it does not say 200 FHLA units have been delivered - it just says -
200 HLA units - so we are not sure if there are 200 fire snorkels that
can reach the 33rd floor or not - but 200 does seem plausible - even
though google AI cannot tell me how many cities in the world have blds
over 300 feet - but it did say that the usa has 50 cities with blds
over 300 feet - so we should have at least 300 of these snorkels in
the usa

australia got street legal 340 foot snorkel in 2025

https://brontoskylift.com/us/custom-bronto-s104hla-to-claim-the-title-for-tallest-aerial-platform-in-australia-us/

cairo has 33 story snorkels

https://share.google/aimode/I16jeLcIW5SWmeH5h

moscow, karachi, cairo, tapei - they have 33 floor fire snorkels

over 200 HLA snorkels have been built - are they all fire snorkels? or
are some industrial snorkels for wind turbines or whatever?

apparently the tallest fire ladder in usa is 137 feet

While "standard" aerial ladders in North America typically range from
75 to 105 feet, specialized high-reach models like the CR 137 are used
by departments in cities with many high-rise buildings

(sometimes google ai is kinda weak on the logic - how does 30 extra
feet help at a 400 foot bld? if there are 100 blds that are 400 feet
high - the 137 foot ladder still wont reach - where does "many"
buildings factor in? oh I know - a city with more highrises has better
chances of a highrise fire - and the mayor wants to be able to say "we
bought a 137 foot l;adder - we are perfect"

but south padre texas got 174 foot snorkel in 1996 - probably is dead
and buried now

jews were driven out of german banks between 1933 and 1939

https://share.google/aimode/yg3rY21aZLoBJXNEg

we read about that maybe 20 years ago - robbins library had a great
book that covered that

In 1933, the Jewish population made up approximately 0.75% of the
total population in Germany.
Out of a national population of roughly 65 million people, about
505,000 were registered as Jews by religious affiliation. Despite
being such a small fraction of the general population, they were
highly urbanized, with about one-third living in Berlin alone.
Would you like to know how these demographics changed after the
Nuremberg Laws were introduced in 1935? nah - some other day maybe

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

it always comes down to jocks vs nerds

Google AI - which is it?

" While the LAFD is understaffed relative to the city's 4 million
residents, the actual number of daily fires is manageable for the
current force:"

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


dear google AI - do you know what it means to 'talk out of both sides
of your ass"?

what is largest city with no FD?

https://share.google/aimode/X7Bp30RkZ2TXA4FeJ

google AI is damn smart - however - look at this -

Understaffed Major Cities: Among large U.S. cities, Los Angeles is
noted for being significantly understaffed compared to its population,
despite being a major metropolitan area.
Reddit +1

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

we will ask google ai a followup question about this

here is our question for google ai - if lafd is significantly
understaffed why dont 11,000 homes burn down every day in los angeles?

lets see what she says

lol - its like arguing with a 2 tear old -
https://share.google/aimode/TNgaYumJV4BtbbGm6

hey google AI - stop lying to protect your buddies at lafd - there are
no national standards - every standards of cover study in the last 50
years has told you that -

Response Times: The national standard for fire response is 4 minutes,
but average response times for structure fires in some areas of LA,
like the Palisades, have reached over 8 minutes.

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

Google AI really seems to think that I am postulating 11,000
simultaneous building fires - lol

Google AI has been snacking on too many green peanuts

trump talked about crime rates on sunday maybe

pretty sure that trump mentioned crime rates on AF1 when he returned
to DC from florida or wherever on sunday or wbenever

he said crime is lowest it has ever been

we are 100% sure if anyone asked him WHY crime rates are so low now -
his head would explode - because he has no clue - he would say -
because we closed the border - but we all know that crime took a dive
when biden was in office - so trump will be spewing BS as usual

what is trumps real agenda? opus dei? jewish? russian? fascist?
racist? rapture?

personally we think his primary number 1 super max hatred is towards
Obama - he never criticizes obama in public - he was videoed joking
with obama at the cathedral - he is probably planning the 'perfect
crime' to take out obama - because skin color is very important to
trump - look at his inner circle and cabinet
