[MrDyson01]

@Federal3t22 nice scanner bro and do you work for the fd?

[Federal3t22]

@MrDyson01 Thanks. I maybe getting a new one, once PD switches over to digital trunking, which will be next year. I am currently a newly applicant of the Town of Vernon FD.

@tudarocki Fuck you faggot. America's the greatest country in the world and I think I speak for everyone in America when I say that I hope you never come here and enjoy this great country like we do.

@technutxp i must just tell you that you dont know a fuck about Radio transmitions or reception. sad but true

[Federal3t22]

@technutxp 33.80 is Tolland County Fire Dispatch's (TN) main dispatch frequency They do have a 155 Mhz repeater. Even Vernon's primary fire frequency is low band (33.48).

Dude your so lucky

[southpark326]

did you get the siren test to day

[Federal3t22]

sure did. I'll post the vid in a few minutes

[Rheems1]

When you said it was Manchester over the scanner.. you said oh I guess I was wrong aftewards.... who was that dispatching? I love that trailer tone and would love to hear that more often!!!

[Federal3t22]

it was Manchester, but I thought it was another call do to a severe thunderstorm that was rolling through the area (which killed my Pro-82). It was an MVA. Glastonbury also uses the same trailer tone Manchster does, and Enfield just stopped using it. I'll get some video or audio of a dispatch from these towns. Also for an extra treat, I often pick up the Berkshire (MA) Sheriff's control over Hartford's non trunked repeter. They still use Quick Call 1 to activate several town's sirens.

[techhelper1]

i though before it was a wheelock 7002t or 7004t

[Federal3t22]

7002Ts are not too common in the town, and the 7004T is a 120VAC alarm, and they are no AC systems left in town that I'm aware of. Simplex and Notifier (older systems with SHGs newer with Spectras) are dominant in town. As I said I know a Simplex tech and he's services the Comfort Inn, so I'm 100% certain they're 9838s, probably on 9101s.

[coffeeandsugar20]

How much was this scanner?

[Federal3t22]

I paid about $150 for this, but you can find cheaper models.

[80fireman]

fire alarm at a Comfort Inn?? last time that happened here, it was a working structure fire, destroyed the building

[Federal3t22]

the alarm goes off frequenty there, mainly from idiots pulling it. One of my friends is a fire alarm tech with Simplex and has told me he's up there regularly.

[NHComputerGeek]

you can get manchester NH??

also how fast can your scanner scan all the memory banks? mine is pretty slow and im thinking of upgrading

[Federal3t22]

mine's preaty fast. I'd say it takes about 5 second for it to scan through what I have programmed in
