Technology is an important part of the fire service and luckily we have some members of the department who are technology savvy. One way we combat the high cost of repairing and maintaining our equipment is to perform these duties in house. Some of the apparatus such as SCBA's, Pumps, and other devices which affect life safety, cannot and should not be altered or repaired except by certified technicians. All other minor repairs are performed by our qualified members.
Listen to the action live as it unfolds:
Tune
your scanner to 158.745MHz to listen to Rutherford
County Fire Net.
You can also find lots of other frequencies for Rutherford County agencies and services here. We don't typically use "10 Codes" on fire net but if you need a copy of them you can get them here. RadioReference.com is another great resource for those of you in scanner land.
New procedures are being implemented for radio communication
The Rutherford County Fire Coordinator, Rutherford County Sheriff's Office, Rutherford County Emergency Management Agency, Rutherford County Emergency Medical Services, and all District Chiefs are working together to streamline all fire radio communications and ensure NIMS and ICS compliance to increase the safety and improve multi-jurisdictional radio traffic. You can view the updated Communications Procedures by clicking HERE. Feel free to contact the webmaster for more information on this subject.
