I AM ADDING SOME INFO IN CAPITAL LETTERS - MORE INFO NEEDED - ANYONE ?
- ANYONE ?

Fire department fireground radio channel usage - Boston Massachusetts area

Boston - responding units go to a repeaterized dedicated fireground
channel with a dedicated dispatcher who can receive and transmit at
the same time

Medford - stay on primary repeater channel - UNKNOWN IF DISPATCHER IS DUPLEX

Everett - stay on primary repeater channel - UNKNOWN IF DISPATCHER IS DUPLEX

Revere - stay on primary repeater channel - UNKNOWN IF DISPATCHER IS DUPLEX

Malden - go to a simplex fireground channel (153.83) - no contact with
dispatcher I think

Chelsea - go to FG simplex channel - IC might go to Tac channel

Arlington - supposed to go to Ch 2 - rarely do - dispatcher can
neither receive nor transmit on Ch 2

Brookline - ? go to simplex on output of primary repeater channel -
DISPATCHER CANNOT HEAR SIMPLEX CHANNEL (probably)

Newton - ? go to simplex on output of primary repeater channel -
DISPATCHER CANNOT HEAR SIMPLEX CHANNEL (probably)

channel with a dedicated dispatcher however the dispatcher cannot
receive and transmit at the same time

Cambridge - go to one of two dedicated repeated firegound channels (Ch
14 + Ch 16)
with a dedicated dispatcher, who can receive and transmit at the same
time (I think) - CH 13 + CH 15 CANNOT BE HEARD BY THE DISPATCHER - CH
13 + CH 15 ARE APPARENTLY THE OUTPUT CHANNELS OF CH 14 + CH 16

Worcester - go to a talkgroup with a dedicated dispatcher who possibly
can receive and transmit at the same time - unknown if any simplex is
used
