QFRS Selcall numbers...

[Luke_g]

Hi all,

I am setting up my new tait TM8200 and i require as many selcall ( Fleet) numbers as you might have.Mainly for the North Coast and Brisbane Areas. Thanks in advance.

Cheers Luke

Why would you need the individual selcal numbers for ??

[Stretch]

North Coast is too far outta my range but if you google Scanscope, connect a scanner up to the computer and it decodes all the sellcall numbers for you. I'll show you an example when I get home

[alinco21]

I'll give that a go as well.

[Stretch]

I'll give that a go as well.

Also works for QAS units. Been told it gives their unit numbers.

[alinco21]

yes it does. day 1 of 21 it would appear.

[bodyguard]

how does it get the unit number ?
is it with the voice transmission ?

might have to have a play with it

[alinco21]

at the end of each unit Tx ther is a tone sent out, this program decodes that tone.
after 21 days you have to pay for it 50 euro's I beleive after that to make it work

[Stretch]

I brought it as thats helping me chase the fleet numbers (QFRS) that I haven't got. Currently not using it as I've got back into Pager Decoding but I've just set it back up and trying to get it to work again

[Stretch]

Heres a screen shot. 10499 means its fleet 499 (being 640M) and you can see the CTCSS tone of the channel.

[Stretch]

640M is fleet 499. Yes I do have a list, current for south east. Would you like it?

[Luke_g]

stretch, that is what i am after for any region you have ( For QFRS). Thanks in advance.

Cheers Luke

Why would QFRS call a truck 499 but call is 640M?

qfrs do this because they have an asigned station and appliance type so an incident controller knows from where they are gettting a truck and what type of truck they are getting at that incident

[Comint]

Why would QFRS call a truck 499 but call is 640M?

499 is the Fleet Number (for inventory management), and those digits also appear on the vehicle Number Plates.

640M is the appliance callsign, which indicates that it is from Region 6 Station 40, and the M denotes it is a Command and Rescue Appliance.

Appliances, particularly Pumpers, do not spend their entire lives at one Station, and could in their lifetime operate under a dozen, or more, different callsigns.
