I'm sure they have... it's called an Incident Control Vehicle. With the new system all yellow or green radios can cross-band repeat. Link two of them and you have a repeater.

There are a variety of Comms in the regional areas. Sat Phone is one of them, but alot (not sure how many) brigades have a setup where they have a repeater at or near the station/town that they use with a selcall type function, can't remember the name right now, which is then piped back to comcen via phone or microwave link.
There are some other fun things that can be done using the radio and this system I'm told.

Thats what it is/was called. The old Bushies Comms Module had a section on it.

BFS Comms? Thought it was only a FRS/WAFB thing. Also used to activate pagers, siren, group call and so on. Is that the one? Used codes via a keypad on the mic to activate such things.

Sounds a bit like the CCS (Country Communications System) perhaps?

Tara is in the old bfs module on radios and comms,its got a number for the swan region and explains how to do it,my understanding is its like a phone call through the radio to comcen,im assuming much like a selcall

but as far as i know all country brigades use sattelite phone or landline

i was told that through the new radio system they will be able to speak through to comcen.

i am pretty sure that when country brigades have fire calls, one member stays on station, and the appliances talk to him via radio, then he repeats that message via direct line to coms center. but yeah i am not 100% sure.

Hello All,
Does anyone know the frequency for the FRS guys in Geraldton??? I have looked at the ACMA website but don't know what i am looking for.

WPXZBP · Post by **WPXZBP** » Tue Dec 02, 2008 10:30 pm

For the career guys it'll be one of the FRS repeaters - 51 to 58. They'd be your best bet.
