Fire Station Point-Of-Interest file???

Hello,

Does anyone have a Point-of-Interest File for Tom Tom, that has all of the fire stations around the State (CFRS, VFRS, BFS, etc) that they are willing to share?

If not does anyone have a database of them all with GPS coords so I can create one?

Thanks

Thanks, surprising how you miss it when it's not there.

Is the scanner working today? I can't connect for some reason.

Re: Fire Weather

The formula that BoM use to calculate the forecast fire danger index is listed below: Fire Danger Index Calculation McArthur Mk 4 Grassland Fire Danger Meter (as used by BoM 2009-2010) GFDI = EXP(-1.523+1.027*LN(Q)-(0.009432*(100-C)^1.536)+0.02764*T+(0.6422*V^0.5)-0.2205*(RH)^0.5 where Q = fuel quan...

Re: New VHF channels

I have 163.2500MHz on the scanner in the car, and whilst it is great around the suburbs, I get terrible interference close to the City. It seems to cross a range of freq's as it comes up on 164.0000 as well. Seems to be localised in the CBD as it starts near the Causeway and also Northbridge and Mit...
