    Alot of frequencies are the same for multiple departments. New Fairfield has a frequency where, depending on weather conditions, you can hear FDNY Staten Island units getting sent out. Its NF's Hi-Band Fire Channel 2 or the OEM channel, can't remember which.

    ok that would explain why I heard columbia county fire control paging out I believe valatie fire dept when I was driving on 118 on the border of westchester and putnam county this afternoon on 46.50 which is yonkers dispatch channel if i am not mistaken

    If you have nextel:

    You need to save the file to your computer. And it has to me a wav file. Then you need to dowload my jal. And you also need the data cable from the computer to the phone. Unless you have a phone recorder and it allows you to set them as ringtones. And if you find a way to save them or if you record them, try to get permission to do so first.

    there is a webpage that will allow you to send the wav file to your nextel via text message you can also add games to your phone this way you will not have to buy any cables to do this the link is below

    click here for phone uploader

    The fault would be with the member. While responding they are suppose to be following all traffic rules and laws. If he causes an accident as you state.

    yes this is true but if he or she kills someone trying to get to the fire house could the family of the victim hold the fire dept responsible as well

    But....... does anybody have permission from Westchester County to rebroadcast information from it's frequencys?

    I would tend to believe that they would allow it for safety reason since its breaking the law to have scanners in our pov how do we know if our dept has been returned to quarters or it is a false alarm we cant pick up the trunked system on our pagers. god forbid responding to the firehouse a member causes an accident there dept was returned and the member did not know. who's fault is it then

    Ok so this 46.22 can be heard on low band but from what I am reading if I am correct this can not be heard over a pager or can it be but only fire 16? Sorry for the million questions but if something like this can be done to pagers for fire 11 I would want to bring it up to my chiefs b/c I don't like the fact that I can't hear anyone call in responding anymore.

    I am unsure about the minitor 2,3 and 4 but the minitor v has an option that allows you to have two channels so you can have 46.26 and 46.22 on the pager and have it scan between the two channels and only fire 16 can be heard on 46.22

    I know with the minitor v you can have two channels on it. it can be program to scan between the two channels and also have a priority channel

    i stated above that the 2 channel minitor v has a priority channel that is not the case also 46.22 is only for fire 16 so you will only here the following fd's on 46.22 armonk,banksville,bedford,bedford hills,chappaqua,katonah and mount kisco hope this info helps
