Hi All,

Time for a Sydney fire site update.

As you all may have been aware, I have not been around a lot in the last few months, this was due to my large commitment with the running of the 2010 Scout jamboree. As this is now complete, I have the time once again to start updating this site, with that in mind I am still currently looking for ideas for thinks to add to the site to continue to increase its overall appeal. I am at present trying to get together the following information and if anyone has up to date info they are willing to share with every one drop me an email.

At present I have now added the following information to the site.

RFS PMR Frequencies

GRN Control Channel information

If you see any errors please do not hesitate to contact me. I am still looking to add the following:-

GRN zone 2 and 3

GRN Site Information

Personal Photos of RFS Appliances for Appliance page use

Any Digital fire channel information

Ambulance GRN Talk groups

St John’s Frequency information

If anyone has any ideas outside the above, please let me know.

Live Stream

There are several ways to listen to the fire stream with both the original main stream with both video and audio and the audio only stream at radioreference.com, the radio reference stream is located Here.

The Sydney Fire Stream is also on ustream during major fire events and fire Days. I will make a post when the Ustream link is active.

Darryl Schlo : stream gone again
Christiaan Z : ok but what happened to the days when 86, 102, regentville rfs, orchard hills rfs and mulgoa rfs got activated at the same time because of the type of facility it is?

Christiaan Z : ok was listening to a live feed scanner lat night and p86, p102 got responded to afa but no rfs
