E-17 dis-banded 1-16-1968 .Because it was no longer an active company its designation was then used in "Backdraft".

    Did a search, if it is the same one seems like there are some unhappy users. Just a heads up for all.

    4/10/2025 Manhattan Helicopter Crash Box 0352

    I believe there was a dedicated CW FDNY channel. Most of the transmissions were for the radio man for "Ladder 5 no MDT" but there would also be transmissions for extra alarm fires.

    4/10/2025 Manhattan Helicopter Crash Box 0352

    Lately it seems that monitoring FDNY is a hit or miss proposition, more miss than hit. Both the OpenMHZ and the Broadcastify sites leave a lot to be desired. Some boros are missing, like Queens and Manhattan, as well as the Citywide site. I hope that things will return to sense of normalcy soon.

    4/1/25 Boston MA 3rd Alarm Box 5337

    Good job. Brighton, District 11, is sorta like East Boston in that it is seperated rom the rest of the city. The main access is Commonwealth Avenue. The RIT response of 37/26 comes from Huntington Avenue and 33/15 on the second is another long haul. And of course E-21 goes everywhere!

    With all those cuts mandated by some in Washington I hope we are not going to return to that type of service again.
