Could you get them on a podcast going over how they made the decisions on how to build something like this? What radios they chose and why, how they organized the interior and why, why they chose that vehicle. etc. It's such a complex project i would love to know how they went about picking everything.
Very complex! Our Deputy Fire Chief at the time wanted to make sure we avoided any single point failure of the unit. Our fire district operated it's own dispatch center and we needed a backup. It was entirely grant funded back in 2003. A lot of it is just making sure that if one thing fails it doesn't bring the whole operation down. We need backups for the backup because we are the backup!
@@ryanmahoney5657 curious what is the organization like? How does one get somethign like that started in their area, what was the grant application like, basically I'm interested on everyting someone who wants to get something like this in their area set up. It's awesome seeing volunteers get so integrated into helping their emergency services in their area.
Thanks again Josh! We were deployed for 2 days to the Keller Fire in Oakland!! Thanks for the shout out of our group, and was awesome to meet you! Steve K8YIP
Awesome work! The ability to do cross band operations is huge. Here in Western NY, everyone is on a different band. Having the ability to "plug" everyone together is vital. In my last company's rescue rig, we installed HF, VHF and UHF crossband trunk links. Most of our 911 Fire frequencies operated in the 46 mHz range while PD was in the 148.00 range. While local Federal Agencies were in the 460.00 range. Our apparatus had the capability to link all Agencies onto one usable channel. Communication is key during a MCI or large scale scenes.
Had a great chat with them and beyond what they do I was impressed on how they engage and get local government to see the value and support them... San Jose (nearby) tells volunteer's (and CERT) they want our support but nothing is really done to prepare. Staff recently told us in September "well in a real emergency that overwhelms us, we would just get state and federal help" I wonder if they would say the same thing this month 🤷
Our district is very supportive of our group, and I’m proud to be a part of it. The compliments that we get from different fire agencies when we’re out assisting makes it all worthwhile. We also do lots of bicycle races and fun runs as well. These events give us the opportunity to keep up on our skills and make sure everything is in working order.
Thanks for the video!!! What see there is the end result of a TREMENDOUS amount of behind the scenes work in terms of organization, funding and engagement to make it a reality. A lot of people outside of government fail to realize just how challenging and difficult it can be for stakeholders in the first responder community to get traction for resources like these to where it becomes material reality. Every jurisdiction is different, some decision makers see the value in this kind of effort, others ignore it. Kudos to the San Ramon Valley first responders for making this happen!
I agree and there are other agencies that have communications rigs that stay parked in a barn all the time. We are very fortunate that our district lets us go out to public service events like fun, runs and bicycle races and provide net control for ham volunteers.
Nice rig. Their new tandem axle rig looks very impressive. I've worked in police and fire dispatch communications and fire service, so this is right up my alley. Hopefully you'll be able to get a tour of their new rig!
Thanks for sharing this with us Josh! Wow! What a fantastic rig! I'm a Firefighter here in the UK and we have nothing on that scale or capacity! Incidentally, I'm running an exercise next month with our colleagues from Search & Rescue along with RAYNET UK, testing and demonstration communications across different services and radio networks, including fire, S&R and VHF marine with the RAYNET amateur volunteers relaying radio message from the incident ground back to our fire service control room. Thanks again & best 73 Ben de M7FRS
Most impressive! I particularly like the way the mobile rigs are mounted. Ultra clean, yet easy to remove for replacement/repair. This is top shelf engineering from every detail. Thank you Josh for this great walkthrough and interview. 73 OM
Though the rigs are networked into each dispatch console, if there is a supervisor behind you or if the networking fails, there are hand mics for each radio as a back up. 73
I sure miss Huel. Great video Josh, Im part of RACES / ARES in Cochise county AZ. I work the radio room at the local ER in Douglas. Our group gets deployed like these guys do as well as community events. Unfortunately i'm a trucker and not able to get involved as much as I'd like to. I'm currently building an EMCOMM unit of my own that hopefully someday I will be able to go to places that are in situations like the recent hurricanes
This is great! I'm impressed that you have a volunteer team to run it. As a local EM, I'm building a mobile incident command post and communications vehicle and you've given me some great ideas.
Wow! What I like to watch is how this technology, and equipment trickles down lower and lower. What I mean is my local volunteer fire Department has better equipment than my station did 40 years ago. What I regret is I can't follow any longer because of trunked nets, or encryption.
Good video Josh. I am retired now but I used to do this stiff for a larger city Emergency management group. Since I retired, I got into Ham, joined an ARES group in a very small town where I now live. With the hurricane in Florida and a few other states it made me wonder about Those ARRL Radiograms. I have an idea for another video. How about doing one on passing traffic using Radiograms? The ARRL is big on them and I know there are some guys helping after the hurricane disaster. I am sure knowing how to receive/ re-transmit and file(?.. or whatever one does) them somehow would be a helpful skill. Something ham radio is supposed to be all about. I have never done one and I wouldn't know what to do with it after I forwarded the information on to the next station. HF is pretty new to me and perhaps this would be a skill which might help me help others. Does that sound like a topic you might consider?
I first saw that rig at the first Pacificon I attended in 2022, it's still as impressive now, as it was in 2022. I can't imagine the one-upmanship on this rig that 's being put into the new rig.
Tha is for sharing, Washington Co Pennsylvania has a county comms vehicle similar to this one. And the county let's WACOM ham club operate it because Washington county government knows nothing about the operation of any of the equipment inside the truck. 73 K3CRJ
Very nice! It takes pretty dedicated volunteers to make sure that you’re up on all of the technology and to test and make sure all of the radios are working.
Fantastic. Hope you pass on our/my admiration for the Volunteer work they do. Wonder if there was anything like it for the hurricanes Fla, NC, Tenn, etc. Wow
This is great, I've seen the truck deployed around here and was always curious what's inside. Will have to show this to my other incident management team folks.
Funny you posted this video today, as today I got my first look at my department's new MERC (Mobile Emergency Response Command) trailer. I'm tasked with outfitting it with both radio and telephone communications in compliance with our state's interoperability channel plan. Fun stuff! and awesome rig there!
That is a most impressive communication rig riding on a 20 year old vehicle. I can only imagine what the new version is going to look like. The existing one doesn't appear to be lacking anything.
This is what municipalities in natural disaster prone areas should have at the ready at all times. I couldn't tell if they could in this video but, it would be really neat if they were able to communicate on the various channelized radio services, as well.
Nice video Josh. This is a nice setup. Seeing how excited you are seeing this, I do hope someday you get to tour a similar military comms shelter. Amazing what you can do with an "unlimited budget". Plus you can see what a $250k radio looks like. LOL
I really liked this video! Too bad with all the money FEMA has that they cannot do similar things. This is a bunch of volunteer private dudes getting the job done.
WOW! Makes the old WWI ambulance we converted to a comm rig look primitive! And we had police/fire/EMS radios on top of the ham rigs... nothing this nice though! If we needed to pee it was go find a bush!
As a teenager I was a ground team member for our local Civil Air Patrol unit. When I was at home base I liked hanging around our communication van. We had three radios and a phone that you cranked to make the phone on the other end ring. This 20 year old truck is light years ahead of what we were using.
This is the size of my county's pumper trucks. Serious cash went into this rig.

The biggest problem with one of these rigs is when you have 4 or 5 radios going and 2 or 3 people doing comms in such a small space it destroys the quality and efficiency of the dispatch center it is supposed to be.. Lots of the Amateur radio clubs have communication trailers and they found that having 2 or 3 smaller trailers that have 2 person operating teams dedicated to fewer radios linked by computer networking screens to function best.. Smaller trailers are also far easier to get into areas that have lots of storm damage or are just isolated.. These large mobile setups are best as deployable replacement County level dispatch central offices that can be placed to replace a destroyed dispatch building..
We just used it back in December when our dispatch was moved from one building to another. We had all 911 forwarded to the rig and though a little cramped; worked really well.
Its way cool. I have personally trained with and used AZ DEMAs Emcomm vehicles which consists of 1 " Toad"( based on a Grumman type van) and 3 "Frogs" ( based on motorhomes) that are prepositioned thruout AZ. Hf, VHF,UHF, Satellite up/down link, cellular, video feeds etc , definitely awesome. Beats the " manpack " anyday.
We use Telex Csoft. Our new rig will have wireless headsets but on the current rig they plug into ADHB-4 at each position and for every 2 radios it uses 1 IP-223.
Now that was a cool rig and every state should have 1 or 2 of those for emergancy and disasrer situation like what has happened with Hurricane Helene. Thanks for making this video Josh because that is money well spent in my opinion on that rig. Hell I want that 20yr old rig they can just donate that bad boy to me if they want lol!
Although there are a few other rigs in the area. It’s really the only rig that has a whole team of volunteers that can operate, maintain, and drive the rig
Having a pile of gear, however well organized, is nothing but potentially dangerous, absent communications standards, rigorous training, and tight management. It would be helpful to know if any of these are considered when sending radio amateur volunteers out into the field in either public safety or public service.
They allow non-employees to drive a county truck?! And somehow find the money to insure, maintain, operate, and equip it all in top condition?! Either that's one mad rich valley, or someone took hostages.
It's actually a group of Reserves so considered district personnel when responding. It requires a Firefighter endorsement from the DMV with many hours of behind the wheel driver training with experienced fire engineers.
well that's why I have my ham license, because time and time again even the local emergency agencies don't even have reliable communication, anybody's cheap Chinese made Motorola radios now!
