Does anyone use this site? It’s usually pretty good. Now says that’s FDNY recorders are down for unplanned maintenance. They been down since 10/14. Anyone have any information?

Wondering too. Said unplanned maintenance as of 10/14 for a week, it’s been twice as long though. I’m missing it

In the meantime, we still have Broadcastify, only problem is the Brooklyn Frequency is coming in really low.

This isn't the first time the Brooklyn frequency has been low on Broadcastify. As long as the broadcaster knows about it, it should be fixed relatively quickly

I like how on Openmhz all the boroughs play at the same time opposed to only listening to one

Openmhz is always clear and the default set is to all boroughs at once which is great to follow sequentially as opposed to Broadcastify where in the all boroughs setting you lose transmissions. I have Broadxastify primarily for some of the departments here in central CT but have used Openmhz for FDNY. Hope it comes back.

I use OpenMHz to monitor Boston and Chicago with no problems. Original BFD also had Channel 5 for dispatching, this one is Channel 1 and 2 but the are separate.I tried to listen to FDNY but they got so far behind with them doing all 5 boroughs!

It was working fine until the site put some comments about the FDNY being link to some company in Israel, there was then a further comment justifying the original comment and then everything stopped! Shame, it’s a great site. Sounds like a conspiracy to me 😀

I have brodcastify linked to a Bluetooth speaker at the moment , it gives a great old school sound, I can’t bare that digital 800mhz nonsense 👍

So basically what we have now is ClosedMhz

Scanner Radio is its name? If so I use the same thing, for some of its broadcasts it might use Broadcastify

I'm pretty sure that is broadcastify.

Recorders are still down for some reason, going on three weeks.

So basically its political BS and they just hate people who just want to listen to the FDNY.

No idea, I think every taxpayer should be able to listen to what their fire department is up to, we have nothing to hide, certainly inspired me to get on the job

I found this on OpenMHZ for both FDNY and NYPD. You can filter for FDNY and get the 5 boroughs;

You are right. At least the other 4 seem operational
