I have no direct knowledge but I don't believe (in general) that they have any wildland gear issued to its members.

Watching right now

Woodstock FD 2015 Horton / Chevy 4500

2015 Horton/Chevrolet 4500. Ambulance was visiting for final inspection. Delivery in a few weeks. Replaces a 2003ish MedTech/Ford E-350

I understand. Hoping that there is somebody else on the forum that might know.

Dutchess 911 to XXX respond for a reported conscious male patient, unknown if breathing.

Thanks for that. That answers most of my questions. I still have a question about Channel 5. Radio reference shows a transmit and receive frequency as the same, but I don't think they are since channel 6 is the same frequency. Is that frequency what is written down as Channel 13? is that the transmit frequency for Channel 5?

I'm working on updating my department's radio lists and was looking for a little help. I found this on the Radio Standard Operation Procedure issued by the Putnam BES Channel 1 46.38 - Dispatch only Channel 2 46.50 - Fireground Operations Channel 3 46.30 - Fireground Operations Channel 4 46.04 - Fireground Operations Channel 5 46.44 - (Receive) Putnam 911 to Mobile Operations (Transmit) Mobile to Putnam 911 Channel 6 46.44 - (Transmit & Receive) Mobile to Mobile Channel 7 46.10 - Fire Ground 7 Channel 13 46.54 - (Receive only) Monitor Mobiles Talking to Putnam 911 154.4375 Countywide High band 155.340 Ambulance/Putnam Hospital communications 155.400 Ambulance/Hospital alternate frequency 155.220 Ambulance Hudson Valley Hospital 155.280 Ambulance/Unassigned 155.205 GVAC Dispatch, Putnam Valley Ambulance Dispatch, Philipstown VAC Dispatch (EMS) Can someone provide me with the transmit frequencies and the PLs for each of these channels. I also could use a little more information for what each channel is used for. Thank you

The origional post says its a E-450 and to me it looks like a Van Chassis.

I believe they only changed the headlights on the F Series (trucks) and not the E Series (vans). And shouldn't there be more blue on it?? lol

I agree with wiscems, have some follow up questions. Definitly shows interest. The question I always ask is what is something to the extent of what are the next steps from here. This hopefully will get you a time table of when they are planning on conducting more interviews, appointing someone, or getting back in contact with you. This way you know if they will be calling you when you get back home or two weeks later. I also set up an email address that I use primarily for job interviews. It is professional (first name last name) instead of your common email that may be a little less formal or professional. I also was told that when they (interviewers/employer/supervisors) call you not to answer the phone. Let it go to voicemail. Listen to the voicemail. This may give you some clues as to why they are calling so you can prepare yourself. And call them back when you are in a quiet place, with a pen and paper, and ready to answer questions. This way when they want you to write something down you don't have to fumble around or your not in a place that sounds like you have a rock concert in the back ground. Also, with this, make sure that your voice mail is professional for when it rings through. If possible, before the interview, try and find out how many people will be interviewing you. Make a packet for each of these interviewers with a copy of your application, your resume, cover letter, and any other items you may need (copy of your EMT car) and put it in a nice folder or envelope. This way you can give them a copy when you start your interview, even though they may have a copy. And always have an extra copy in case there is more than the anticipated interviewers there and if not you can always use that copy for yourself as if you planned it that way. And finally, try and be as relaxed as possible, while still staying professional. Going to an interview is stressful anyway you look at it. But, if you are well prepared, well dress, and confident in yourself it will be a much better experience for you and it will be noticed in a positive way by your interviewers. This is not to be interpreted, though, to be overconfident and cocky.
