Air Intel mobile to Kings Park to relay direct feed to the RCC at Belmont

Fastlane · Post by **Fastlane** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 8:38 am

I believe the RCC is still @ FESA House in Perth (anyone?). They have an antenna at Belmont that receives the video feed from Air Intel (which presumably makes its way back to Perth via other means). They'll also be able to receive the video at the control point for the fire, if the aircraft puts down and drops off the gear.

Alot of confusion re fireground channels. 6AR saying they can't use 98, however they are already using it.

Air Ops are based out in Belmont I'm sure, so they might be operating from the bunker there, but then they can probably view images and footage from anywhere on the FESA network.

Fireground channel is 97, I was listening to 164.000 on my way to work but I was driving along great eastern highway in the peak traffic and could not figure out how to tune in channel 97...!

Pity level 3 and 4 don't have windows you can open, you could stick your antenna outside and keep listening.
