  1. Hey JBE, get relocators done with some skill? Sounds like you can get them done in your sleep.
  2. Spike, 46.06 is no longer used by New Rochelle. They have moved all talking after initial dispatch (which is on 33.96) to their new UHF frequency. The only department in the southern part of the county on 46.06 now is Pelham. We only use 46.06 for communications with 60 control. While operating at a scene, we use County Fireground 3.
  3. CAM, just try signing in. I never got an email back either so i just tried to sign in and it worked.
  4. Is there a specific reason for this? Or has it just continued from the old days and become "tradition"?
  5. Pelham is 3rd in the 1st division. Thats all I am aware of.
  6. This Thursday, June 29th. I believe kick off is 7:30pm but it might be 7pm.
  7. We have them on a few streets down here. One street is a joke, they are very low and really serve no purpose. The other two streets have higher ones which require the driver to almost stop completely. Having gone over them in a rig (and the driver not knowing they existed) I would say that they are a major inconvenience.
  8. Are they looking to get away from the tillers altogether? If so what are the reasons? Will the Tower ladder become a "Second due" or spare rig?
  9. Chris, check your pm. I found some of them.
  10. They have more room in that house? Isnt it a tight fit with 30A2 there? I thought only one of the bays in that house went all the way to the back.
  11. Does this unit have a cascade on it? or is it strickly for transporting extra bottles?
  12. Filming wrapped up at around 845 friday night. From talking to some of the crew members, they were filming a lot of small transitional shots. PFD was requested at around 645 pm to help soak the platform.
  13. When you use a blue light to respond to a call, you still have to obey ALL traffic laws. You are not granted the exceptions given to the apparatus. Therefore, it should take you the same amount of time to respond with a blue light as it would if you didnt have a blue light.
  14. Porsha, The starter of a topic has the ability to lock it at their discretion. That might be why some are locked but were active less than 50 days ago.
  15. If you are into Mexican foods, the Burrito Poblano is on Main St. Hoss, if memory serves correct, there is also a Villagio Pizzeria in Tuckahoe along with another Rockwells. And of course, everyplace has their Chinese restaurant.
  16. Hey Elia, if I had known you were filming, I wouldve made a cameo appearance. Crutches and all!! haha. Anyway, awesome video. Great job.
  17. As an ice hockey official that has worked the empire state games several times, I can honestly say that the State takes care of the logistical stuff. Most of the staff for the games is Volunteer and I believe this includes most, if not all, of the doctors, nurses, emts, paramedics, etc. They do one hell of a job organizing everything and even having several back up plans. The Games are a really great event and i encourage many of you, if you are around that week, to get involved in some fashion.
  18. Was up there today checking it out. Man what a nice rig it is. Lettering and Stripes should be going on early next week. Also, when i get to them, ill be putting up a few more pictures.
  19. Congrats man, enjoy it. As for a housewarming party, I think we are going to need to use the "2 in, 2 out" concept or call a dedicated FASTeam. We wouldnt want to break any fire codes for over-crowding either.
  20. After reading the two posts about the large brush fires in both Brooklyn and Queens, I got to thinking. First, I find it absolutely awesome that they called in the VFDs for their brush trucks. Second, does the FDNY have brush trucks stationed in parts of the city for this purpose? Or do they feel that it would be a duplication of services since the VFDs have them?
  21. Anyone know when "Radio Bulletin 3" is going to come out? There were supposed to be four of them about this system and its been a long time since the second one came out.
  22. It means the purchase of a new ladder truck. They, along with all other municipalities, are required by law to make public notice of their intentions.
  23. Hey, I am looking for email addresses for the chiefs of the Pound Ridge and Croton Falls Fire Departments. Send me a PM if you have them please. I will delete the post once I receive them. Thanks, Shantz02
  24. I've been looking into it. I do have family there too, even if they dont have residency preference.
  25. Diet Pepsi with the stunt double and the FedEx. The best two by far.
