Thanks guys, makes listening to the fireies alot more easier. Just another question though, i heard on the weekend a code 90, do the FD use similar or same codes to Ambulance to descibe certain events such as a "code 90" which is a deceased person and if so are there are list of codes that they use?
cheers

You got it in one. Code 90 is for a deceased person. Thankfully it is not heard very often.HEKTIK wrote:Thanks guys, makes listening to the fireies alot more easier.

That would solve the problem for 80-90% of these calls, but then there are the other users of the radionet who don't even use code 90, and pass on excessive information over the radio.
Just learned the codes used by RFS in NSW, 'delta' as in "D" for deceased and so on. Sounds a bit basic for me... But I shouldn't start with the RFS ways...

Just curious i saw fremantle first going somewhere on an emergency call and fremantle LT behind, and it occured to me pretty much 99% of the time ive seen a fire vehicle on its way to a call they have the windows down, now i know SJA and wapol have there windows up when responding to a emergency call any reason why there windows are down or its just the thing thats done and no standing order.

Yeah same...just how I drive really, unless it's raining or I'm talking on my hands free, or listening in to a feint signal on the scanner. (which seems to be most fire calls these days )

I hate air conditioning, I prefer having the wind from outside cooling me down, even at 2200 in winter I drive with my windows down. As for volume, haven't had a problem listening to pumpers and light tankers with their sirens going, and whenever I've seen Osborne Park they've had their windows open. If the radio op, can't hear them then they'll tell them to wind the windows up like VKI did during a chase, because for once the cop car had a loud siren.

Just to clarify we have taken up the vehicle four point four call sign due too it having a simular meaning of 44 (Arrived Investigating) i personnally would use the point system. Just to make it easier for ComCen to understand and avoid confusion.JG-103 wrote:Its not eight point eight, its an eight eight, just like with vehilces, its a three four, not a three point four.
Bit like when you catch a bus, 866 for example, its eight six six not the eight sixty six or eight hundred and sixty six.
