Hyannis Remembers
HYANNIS TOWER 1 DEDICATED
Just over 50 years ago on May 23, 1967, Hyannis
Lt. Richard Donoghue was killed in the Line of Duty
when a ladder he was setting up came in contact with
electrical wires. One of his sons, Michael, is shown
with the recently stenciled Tower 1 which now also
carries the name of Lt. Richard Donoghue in memory
of his service.

NEW BREWSTER FIRE HEADQUARTERS
Site preparation and construction of a new 22,000 square foot fire
headquarters
began in the Spring of 2017.
The station which was approved by voters in
November 2015 is being built
behind the present station, built in 1974, on Route 6A. The
new station is
expected to cost approx $13.5 Million.

May 8, 2017 Ground Breaking
FUTURE HYANNIS FIRE HEADQUARTERS
It took a number of years to get approval, develop plans, and
prepare the site for
a new Hyannis Fire Headquarters. Ground will be broken on
Monday May 8, 2017
as construction gets under way on the new station which was approved
at the April
2016 Special District meeting. The 33,000 square foot, $18.5 Million
station will
be built on High School Road Ext., with the first phase being built
next to the present
station. Once completed, the new section will be moved into and the
old station will
be torn down to make room for the rest of the new station -
additional bays.

Onset Seeks New Headquarters
May 15, 2017 District
Meeting
PROPOSED ONSET FIRE HEADQUARTERS
The Onset Fire District will seek approval for approximately $13.9
Million
to construct a new Fire Headquarters Fire Station proposed for Sand
Pond Rd.
at the 2017 District meeting.
The present Onset Station at 5 East Central
Ave. in Onset center was built
around 1950 next to the even older fire station. The buildings
are located
on about 2.5 acres. The station has room for 6 apparatus.
Other apparatus
are parked outside or within a tent on the property. The
department's new
ladder truck delivered in 2015 does not fit in the station and has
to be housed
at the Water District building on Sand Pond Rd near where the
proposed
station would be located if approved..
UPDATE
Onset voters turned out in large numbers for the May 15, 2017 annual
District Meeting where a presentation on the proposed new fire
headquarters
was given. Voters questioned the move of the station from its
central
location in the village to a more remote site as proposed.
There was of
course also concern over the proposed cost and ultimately an
amendment
was made and approved to cap the cost at $8 Million.
May 2017
Orleans Police Station
ORLEANS POLICE STATION
The new Orleans Police Station is shaping up
nicely. The station is located on the site
of the previous station which was torn down to make room for the new
station.
It is located at Route 28 and Eldridge Parkway in Orleans.

The Wellfleet Police Department was approved
to renovate the 1983 former
Police and Fire Station at 36 Gross Hill Road at the November 2016
Town
Meeting. The Fire Department moved out to their new station
across the street
in 2009. The police will now take advantage of that space and
use approximately
$7.5 Million to upgrade the entire police facility. Expected
to reopen in
September 2018. The department is currently working out of
temporary
facilities up the road.

Bourne Moves Headquarters
Headquarters in Sagamore
BOURNE FIRE HEADQUARTERS
The Bourne Fire Department has officially moved its headquarters
offices into
the 53 Meetinghouse Lane, Sagamore Fire Station #3 effective Jan 1,
2017.
The former headquarters offices were upstairs
in the Buzzards Bay Station 1,
but in addition to not being ADA compliant, the facilities were
inefficient.
The Sagamore station was opened in 2006 when the old Sagamore
station
was torn down as part of the Sagamore Bridge Flyover project that
eliminated
the old rotary circle.

SCANNERS AND RE-BANDING ISSUES
Many of you who monitor
Cape Cod Fire and Police Departments on various "trunk tracker"
style scanners may have noticed problems recently with the
implementation of the re-banding of the Massachusetts State Police (MSP)
Trunked Radio system.
Re-banding is a
national reallocation of radio frequencies that has been underway
for several years across the country. The local switchover took
place in March 2013.
The changes were
expected to make many older scanners obsolete,
HOWEVER!
It is possible
that many, if not all of the newer and older scanners
WILL WORK if reprogrammed with the updated frequencies. Older
scanners including the BC780, BC785, BC895, Radio Shack units, and
others will work if re-programmed!
I recommend you
break out the Owners Manual if you haven't already, or download an
online version, brush up on the basics of programming your scanners
and give it a try. YOU WILL BE HAPPY!
Here is a list of
the frequencies used by the system. If you enter them correctly
(make sure you enter them as M (Motorola) TRUNK channels, they
should work.
SEE FREQS
Go to
RadioReference.com
for additional information on frequencies and programming scanners
with what you want to listen to.
For those who are
not already aware, you can also listen to the action online as well.
The LIVE SCANNER FEEDS that were previously on
RadioReference.com have been moved over to a system called
BROADCASTIFY.com. You can listen to
many different feeds, but should check out the local Cape Cod Fire
Departments on the feed provided which covers all the Cape Fire
Departments, including OPS channels, and as a bonus also gets much
of the Southeaster, Mass area off Cape.
This same
feed is also available on a Phone App. So if you wish to listen to
the Scanner here on the Cape you can certainly do so in a number of
ways thanks to
Broadcastify.
