In the past month for me, I have attended:

Ruptured Gas Line last week and a two car MVC on the QEW Highway. one vehicle into the centre median, the other into the right ditch going towards niagara falls. There were other calls (medicals and alarm conditions), but nothing very important to go to.

I know that this probably in the wrong section so please dont get mad at me but i had an idea for a command for the trucks as they are responding to a fire how bout instead of getting out of the trucks to put an SCBA on they put it on as they are going to the fire and dont waste time and they can hook up with the hose faster please let me know if you guys like the idea and maybe we can see it in the future

For the love of GOD! DON'T POST SUGGESTIONS. I don't know why people have such a hard time with that...

Please post in the appropriate thread, this one not being the place. Thank you.

Your department sends an awfully large amount of apparatus out for very minor incidents...don't you think?

Had a good call the other day.

Lincoln Pump 1 and Squad 1 were to respond for a reported MVC. Upon arrival they found a car in the middle of the road with the front missing and one male patient trapped and unconscious. They requested the Rescue. The car had hit a telephone pole (seared it in half), and then struck a large tree before stopping in the middle of downtown beamsville. He was transported to Hamilton with serious injuries.

Remember people, DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE!

The EM3 Version is very different, and, in my opinion; not as good

I'll definitely have to agree with you here. The EM3 LA Mod has about, what I would consider, 50% of the capabilities that the new LA Mod has for EM4. I would highly recommend that you go about getting EM4 for your computer. It would be very worth your while (if you are considering EM3, I would advise against it )

Well, my morning began listening to:

FE Pump 4, Pump 6, Rescue 4, Rescue 6, Tower 4,

2969 Shawnee Trail, Between Barker and Oakhill,

Garage Fire.

Companies made a quick knock-down, and P4 and TW4 stayed on scene to mop up.

Before the knock-down:

FE Rescue 3,

727 Albany Street, Border City Co-op (7 storie appt. bldg.), between Jasmine Court and the Dead-end,

80 y/o female, involved in a fall.

about 7 minutes later:

FE Pump 3, Pump 1, Rescue 1, Heavy Rescue 2, Ladder 1,

909 Canada Drive, between Antionette, and Concession Road,

Reported Structure Fire

They're still on scene for that one. Heavy Rescue 2 went as Rescue 3 was around the corner for the medical. They freed up and went to the fire, but they kept Heavy Rescue 2 goin. I'm glad they did, we're apparently having manpower issues

lol, in Lincoln (which is like...40 minutes from you in Fort) we have had like, 0 calls lately. However I was in Toronto about 2 weeks ago, and they were having MVC's on the 401, the 404, and the Don Valley Parkway about every 5-10 minutes! It was ridiciulous. 3 of which were mvcs with entrapment.

As for your quote about the st kitts fire tones (FortErieFireEli), they only have 2 tones per truck. If they are paging 3 stations for an MVC, then they'll have 4 tones (the chief tones, plus one for each station. I HATE when they do radio and recall pager tests because those take literally 2 minutes to tone out.

But anyways, my most recent call would have to be a reported MVC at King St and Ontario St in Beamsville (Lincoln). After going up to the street, they found nothing. ST catharines fire dispatch then told them that there was a possibility of it being on John St near michael Ave (half way on the other side of town). Once they got there...nothing. They cancelled after fire dispatch stated that it could be at King ST and McKenzie drive (which is in Jordan...2 towns over). They toned out station 4 for that one. Upon arrival...NOTHING AGAIN...so they checked with EMS dispatch and they said it could be by Victoria Ave and King St. Let me just tell you that my mother and I were driving to every location to check, and we have just driven through the intersection of Victoria and King...and there was nothing. After that, all units cleared, and i drove home (because I just so happen to have my license )

THE END

lol to that video. I have never had that happen before. That's too funny

I HIGHLY recommend the BC246t. I have had one for almost 2 years now, and it has definitely done justice. Fantastic scanner. very affordable, and worth getting.

yea the call in st anns was a fully involved roof on a 2 story structure. happened around 2 a.m. units that responded were:

West Lincoln Pump 1, Pump 1A, Rescue 1, Tanker 1, Tanker 2, Pump 2, Car 1, as well as the regional support units.

interestingly enough, big fire call just came in in st. anns which is in west lincoln. unfortunately i can't go, but it seems like it's really going.

The Department Chief is Car 1 on air no matter what..

The Dep. Depatment Chief is Car 2...

Fire Investigators are Car 3 and Car 4, Fire Prevention Inspector is Car 5, Public Education Officer is Car 6

Station Radios are as follows: (X is station number, 1 - 6)

District Chief: X-1

Dep. Dist. Chief: X-2

Senior Captain: X-3

next Senior Capt.: X-4

Junior Capt.: X-5

Then, there are usually 1 or 2 portables on each truck that are designated X-6 through X-8 or -9, that are used for Interior crews, or senior Fire Fighters operating away from other with radios

Clear as mud, right?

Also, on the accident from last night, it wasn't any of my friends, but one of my best friends knows who it was, and there was at least one fatality

If it's the crash that was on highway 3 on boxing day, an ex lakeshore student died in the crash (reilly anzovino I think her name was), but it was a bad accident. very icy road conditions up your way im guessing. we didn't have too many incidents in Beamsville this last little while, except a male stuck in a cherry picker truck. the basket stopped operating and he was stuck 35 ft in the air for about 20 minutes. Lincoln aerial 1 came to rescue him.

Hip hip, HOORAY, hip hip, HOORAY! Cheers to you Hoppah, and Merry Christmas as well.

I haven't had too many calls here in Lincoln. In the middle of the night last night however, there was a 2 vehicle MVC with unknown injuries or trapped. I just dosed right off to bed...i have been on vacation for the past little while so I haven't been scanning too much. needless to say, the day I got back on the 20th, fully involved barn fire in Jordan, involving 2 barns and a trailer!

I work for Tim horton's, as well as being a high school student

Vehicle fire, fully involved. Shut down the 403 highway in Hamilton for it. I have a photo up on my flickr page if anyone wants to see it.

Is it at all possible to make a pedestrian struck incident?

BC246t Analog

Wow this guy is retarded! "My camero could outrun a police car, but it's not like I would ever try and do that". Typical redneck american.. lol.

Fully involved tractor trailer on Bartlett Ave in my town. 1st alm response found the trailer well involved on arrival and layed 2 lines. they opened up the rear of the trailer. No injuries

touche sir!

Recent Call: Just got in a couple hours ago from a gas leak in front of a residence in Grimsby. Wasn't very interesting...all units on standby

Do you mean how to get more incidents that are police related?

Lol, I didn't notice this topic, but it speaks my language

Most recent call: Grimsby Fire - Reported Chimney Fire on Ridge Rd E. Car 3 o/s reports nothing visible, ended up being nothing

my personal FAVOURITE call, was a 2 car MVC on the South Service Rd @ Sann Rd. w/ entrapment. Car vs. tractor. The tractor did a complete 180 flip nearly crushing the driver, and the pickup truck spun into the ditch. The driver needed to be extricated and was airlilfted to Hamilton general hospital. Very interesting... Cause of the crash was fatigue and speed on the driver of the pickups account.

Oh, and as I type this another call came in for Hamilton fire. Technical Rope Rescue on a ship where a patient fell 35 feet down a hole on the ship, the patient is conscious and alert, but requires a high and rope rescue.

EDIT: I should have added I am only a photographer, not emergency personnel, although I hear just about everything

Perhaps he added it himself? I was thinking of making an accident on that road so I would have to shut down one side of the street leaving the other open...they do that alot in my town lol...

Excellent screens! I'm surprised I havent had that accident pop up yet I want one on that long street lol.
