Very smoky fire in the church, They were trying to vent the roof of the Church T117 but power lines are making it tough. Peaked roof. If they do vent might be a problem. T163 Is right behind 117 but cannot get the bucket up due to parked cars. L 116 is front of the fire building.

10-66 Code 1 requires the next greatest alarm, Manhattan job in 2024 was a 6th alarm

While true, that was more of a technicality then policy, and going forward from then on, the cad will no longer recommend the 6th.
The dispatchers will announce the 10-66 code 1 and special call the equivalent. But for all intents and purposes statistically will remain a 5th
(Similar to tonight, where the equivalent was special called, but the higher alarm was transmitted)
And it was the old 66 no code.
The code 1 subcode was only introduced in June of last year.

I think this is where part of the problem is. The limit of 5 alarms is wonderful statistically, but hides the reality. At least to me, the special calls of many trucks above whatever alarm is transmitted is also producing misleading statistics.
 
Signal, 421 wouldn’t relieve the CWTC unless specifically requested to do so. The staff chief at the fire would remain
 
We don’t need commentary while recording . We certainly don’t need you to put a members company and position in a public forum

Very unnecessary comment lol. People can choose how they want to record their videos and upload them freely. Especially when their goal is to be informative to a viewer. You can simply just not watch them if you don’t like what you see or hear 👍
