Fleet Friday IDT 2

- On this Fleet Friday Dispatch Supervisor Chris Carnahan gives us a tour of South Metro's Incident Dispatch Team Unit "IDT 2." It's staffed by the on-duty MetCom Dispatch crew at SMFR Headquarters and responds to major incidents including working building fires, wildland fires and hazardous materials incidents. The specially trained dispatchers assist with radio interoperability, resource ordering and tracking, phone and internet communications while in face to face contact with the incident commander. This takes the stress of a major incident out of the 911 center allowing the dispatchers to focus on other incidents and district coverage.
It's nice to see other departments that are not stuck in the past. My department is high tech as Nintendo and casio calculator watch. Great job and great unit guys
Every one at SMFR are the best and really inspiring
That is totally up my alley as far as the radio communications goes I love doing stuff like this
As a fellow dispatcher it's awesome to see this rig, awesome set up!
Great job Chris. Enjoyed the tour of IDT 2 and learning about its capabilities.
Finally another fleet Friday. Love these
Good video. Well thought out unit. Good, informative presentation.
This is one of the most unique apparatus setups that I could think of for a fire department that answers many problems we see within interface issues where you do not always have good radio signals. Here in Utah, we have this problem everywhere. I can see this being requested by mutual aid a lot.
Well thought out truck very impressive. Hi from western Michigan.
What part of West Michigan?
lake shore Muskegon area
@@patrickcourneya1737 I'm originally from the Zeeland/Holland area
thank you nice upload
Really awesome setup for mobile dispatch.
I love the fleet Friday do a nother one please thank you south metro
Truely beautiful rig.
If you guys have a snow cat can you do a fleet Friday on it
They do have a snow cat
Could you guys do a hazmat vlog I seen the Scottish equivalent earlier and wondered what the differences would be. Thanks sooooo much guys. Love this channel
As a Amateur Radio Operator who aides my counties Emergency Management Agency this is my dream truck
That is one awesome vehicle that you have
As a commo guy this video was pure eye candy.
That's freaking awesome!
Awesome Video Guys.
Wow!! I wished I had one of those for ARES (Amateur Radio Emergency Service).

Can u guys please do a vlog with fire explorers 👌🏾👌🏾
Awesome stuff! I wish we would have had this when the Pope came to Denver or at Columbine.... I remember dispatching 50+ ambulances during the MCI when the pope came to Cherry Creek from a Ambulance...
I was on Medic 52 (Rattlesnake Fire) that was assigned to Cunningham Station 62 to provide coverage and after a 24 hour shift responding with Cunningham we got assigned to go into the event due to the existing resources being overrun and DG Ambulance who had been covering the march refusing to cross out of the city. Over the next 20 hours I started more than 100 IV’s on dehydrated teenagers and young adults that had participated in the march into Cherry Creek State Park. Was a weekend to remember.
@@coloradod3649 Yeah - I'm pretty sure there was a lot of DG rigs there... Bike Team was all over the inside of the park for sure.
This is really cool truck
🚒🚒🚒Very interesting vehicle lots of radios that is for sure
What is the ford expedition in the background at 5:16. looks nice.
Strange choice to have it external from the truck, rather than an interior "camper" style
They reference why in the video, but to expand on that it's so they can be more accessible to the IC and other people on the fireground, as opposed to being isolated inside a vehicle.
Traditionally, our ICs stay in their truck or near it therefore isolating us if we are in our own truck not providing the face-to-face communication. This also allows us to carry more gear.
@@topher65001 They locate as a pair.
So i know SMFR primarily uses the state DTRS trunked radio system but VHF is mentioned in this video, so im curious does SMFR use VHF as a backup or where and when would that VHF system be used.
my local fire and emergency services are a mix of old and new they are too cheap to have a rig like this on their fleets they rent one essentially (renting it from my shop) its a 4x4 ford F550 with locking diffs front and rear service body like this dodge equipment is similar though theres CB radios on board as well (were not a city theres alot of wooded areas near by and we cover multiple municipalities) these command center trucks are worth every single penny spent the awnings are a smart idea might fit some during the next update
I'm not sure if my comment posted. But is this a mobile command post in smaller form? Does SMFR have a Mobile command post that is a giant RV type truck.
im surprised that this isnt a walk in squad type vehicle so you arent standing out in the rain or snow running a command center
I’m guess that with the states commercial drivers license (cdl) requirements, it wouldn’t be practical for a dispatcher to hold a CDL so they get around it by having a pick up truck.
Can you do a Fleet Friday on the Black and Red suburban(? but it looks to have a ford badge on the front) @5:18?
That’s a reserve chief vehicle I think
what if someone is lost out in a hot zone where your at on scene,can that gadget on top pick that up to SMFR
What are the model of the motorola radios and what are the 2 others below it?
Very impressive. Being this is IDT2, I assume there is a IDT1. Is there more? Are the dispatchers EVOC trained for responses? Very informative, great Fleet Friday 👍.
South Metro Fire Rescue PIO, how often is this apparatus dispatched to incidents?
hi, do you have a mobile command bus for your fire or bush fire or anything else?
I lile that if something happens to metcom where they normally run and send out calls they can still run things and send out calls
Can you do a fleet Friday on tower 18
That is the most MDTs, mobile radios, and hand radios I've ever seen on one truck
I've seen more, but only on the mobile command posts. That is an impressive truck for sure.
How many IDT units do you have at South Metro?
Do you have a river rescue boat truck in your fleet?
How much did this vehicle and all the equipment cost?
Good vid
Wow awesome how do I get into firefighting
I am a Fire fighter and my dept. has that same truck and it's very useful.
Cool lights
What’s ic
that is a lot of electronics
Love it keep it up. Can we start doing shout out please?
South Metro Fire Rescue PIO I was thinking that you could put on are name and picture.
This is actually really cool! I’d personally like to see what it’s like inside the com center, of course if y’all haven’t done that already 😂
Paul Jameson go take a peak at South Metro unscripted episode 1
They also have a day in the life of a dispatcher on there channel as well for south metro fire and rescue
@southmetrofire when would this turck be used?
From video description: It's staffed by the on-duty MetCom Dispatch crew at SMFR Headquarters and responds to major incidents including working building fires, wildland fires and hazardous materials incidents.
Nice
Awesome video
Needs several types of drones
Can you show us engine 33 and tower 32 pls
Donnie Aragon tower 32!
WHere's IDT-1?
It no longer exists they turned into a ambulance if you look through the other comments people asked about it
Jesus south metro has some money to blow😂
What are the iPhones used for in the field and also are they department property.
What's your intro song?
why not a walk in?
I believe because walk ins are really big and bulky which doesn't workout too well when responding to wildland incidents where it can get stuck easily.
Good vid! SMFR GOOD JOB USE RAM NOT FORD!
What was that thing he pulled out that he did not show?👨🏼🚒🙋🏽♂️
Jakob Lanzas at which part?
7:08
Jakob Lanzas the green and silver thing? That is a collapsible ladder
Ooh i did not know
Wouldn’t a bus be better suited for something like this
This truck is smarter than me
IDT2 wrong Office on wheels2
Hi
"IDT 2"...so is there an "IDT 1"?
Aaron J Walker there was at one point. With a restructuring of unit call signs the decision was made to keep IDT2 as it is a well-known unit and call sign. Current IDT vehicles include IDT10, IDT11, and a on call vehicle where dispatchers will use their own call sign ie IDT 30
What a waste of tax dollars. There is absolutely no need for dispatch to be right beside command.
Jason Williams Actually there is
