WINTER
ARRIVED
CAPE COD HIT BY 2 FEET
OF SNOW
Fire Departments across southeastern Massachusetts
including Cape Cod
and the Islands were hit by a 36+ hour blizzard that
dropped over 2 feet
of snow on the region with winds gusting to hurricane
force
on January 27-28, 2015.
Crews responded to many calls
during and after the storm
with ambulances and fire apparatus getting stuck in high
snow drifts
requiring assistance from heavy snow equipment.
Many hydrants have been covered
and are hard to find and access
in an emergency,

HYANNIS
HYANNIS STATION REJECTED AGAIN
Voters of the Hyannis Fire District once again voted favorably
in support of a new Hyannis Fire Headquarters, but for the third
time in less than a year could not pass the $17+ million expense
by the required 2/3 majority. It is unclear at this point what will
happen next, but there are a number of issues that need to be
addressed if the department has to remain in the current station.
Oct 2014
Chatham FD Relocates
The Chatham fire station has been
torn down and the lot is being
prepared for a new station.
Oct 2014

sides of the rear of the building.
The $8.5 Million building will be built on the current
training facility property
up the street from the old station and will also include a state of
the art training
facility. The old station would eventually be torn down allowing for
the future
construction of a new Police facility.
The project was approved by voters in 2013.
CARVER
FIRE HEADQUARTERS
Voters in Carver approved the construction of a new Central
Fire Headquarters and training facility at 99 Main Street
just up the street from the current station. The old station built
in the 1950s and added on to has been outgrown. The new
station will be built on a property owned by the department
as used as their training facility.

OAK BLUFFS

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
Tim
CAPE
COD Area Fire Radio
and Scott
CAPE
COD Fire & Police Radio
who provide these services.
The link for
