10 CTCSS TONE PROTECTION Radio System Interference Interference to CAL FIRE Local Net communications has become increasingly common, the planned re-use of CAL FIRE assigned radio frequencies, FCC authorized frequency assignment, and antenna improvements made at various CAL FIRE remote radio sites: Local Net radio frequencies have been re-utilized to create additional Command Nets. This was accomplished to increase radio system efficiency and relieve Command Net congestion. Re-use of radio frequencies, however can cause interference to existing Local Net assignments. CAL FIRE radio frequencies are not assigned exclusively to our Department. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules also authorize use of these radio channels to other local government forestryconservation agencies. These users can also create interference to CAL FIRE radio nets. Improved antenna towers and associated radio and antenna systems at CAL FIRE remote radio sites have improved local area radio coverage. However, coverage may be extended unintentionally to other co-channel Units with resultant interference. Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System (CTCSS) A method for elimination of co-channel, public safety radio system interference is the activation of Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System (CTCSS) protection. CTCSS protection is built into modern radio equipment. Several years ago, CAL FIRE converted the mountain top mobile relay selection from burst-tone to CTCSS. Note: References are occasionally made to PL as a tone protection system. PL refers to Private Line, which is the trade name reference to the CTCSS feature provided in radio equipment manufactured by Motorola Corporation. Recent purchases of CAL FIRE replacement radio equipment have provided the opportunity to enable CTCSS protection throughout our radio system. Basic elements of CTCSS implementation will include protection of all radio equipment: Each Local Net has been assigned a discrete CTCSS tone. Mobile relays within the Local Net continuously transmit the specified CTCSS tone. Radio receivers within each Local Net are CTCSS protected so that the receiver will not open unless it detects the assigned CTCSS tone. All receivers are protected; ECC control stations, FFS, AAB, and Conservation Camp base stations, all mobile radios, all HTs and all aircraft and helicopter radios. An example of CTCSS protection is illustrated by examination of the BTU Local Net and the co-channel ( / MHz) CAL FIRE Command-4 Net, which is operating in Central California; 6

11 1) BTU ECC radio receivers will be protected by CTCSS Tone-1. 2) BTU mobile relays will always transmit CTCSS Tone-1. 3) BTU ECC Local Net will only hear radio traffic from their mobile relays. (See also CTCSS Limitations) 4) BTU ECC Local Net will not hear the interfering radio traffic from Command-4, because that radio system transmits CTCSS Tone- 8 Similar CTCSS tone assignments are planned and activated to eliminate other CAL FIRE co-channel interference situations. System planning and engineering will be completed to ensure that existing and future co-channel radio systems are assigned different CTCSS tones. CTCSS protection is commonly used, worldwide, for control/protection of commercial and public safety radio systems. CTCSS Tone Plans CAL FIRE CTCSS tone protection plans will be published in the CAL FIRE Radio Call Plan, as issued to all CAL FIRE radio users. CAL FIRE Telecommunications staff also provides a radio channel summary to the Aviation Management Unit, North/South Operations Coordination Centers, and Unit Emergency Command Centers for distribution to agency, cooperator, and vendor aircraft operators. With exception of HUU and AEU, the assigned CTCSS tone is the same number as the second digit of the Unit designator. Example: TGU unit designation is 2500, which equates to CTCSS Tone-5 (146.2Hz) CZU unit designation is 1700, which equates to CTCSS Tone-7 (167.9Hz) Exception to standard CTCSS assignments: HUU unit designation is 1200 assigned CTCSS is Tone-1 (110.9Hz) AEU unit designation is 2700, assigned CTCSS is Tone-5 (146.2Hz) CDF Command Nets 1 through 12 have been assigned Tone-8 (103.5Hz) on the receive side statewide. This assignment will provide protection from cochannel CAL FIRE Local Nets. CDF Command 11 will be assigned to INCIDENT portable repeaters with OST. It will not be pre-assigned. CDF Tactical Channels are CTCSS protected with Tone-16 (192.8) on transmit and receive. 7

12 CTCSS Limitations Car-to-Car (direct) Communications CTCSS protection for a specific Local Net includes activation of CTCSS tone decoding for all mobile radios. Car-to-Car (direct) communications requires that the assigned Unit CTCSS tone be transmitted to open the mobile receiver. The Kenwood and the Relm mobile radios are programmed to automatically select the proper CTCSS tone in the TA (talk around) transmit mode. Out-of-Unit mobile radios and cooperators should use the mobile relay system within each Unit, (if their radios are not programmed with the receive tone) as per the published Radio Call Plan, or the Group 3 Channel Assignment Plan. 8

13 CDF COMMAND NETS CDF C1 and CDF C2 repeater systems are located statewide and are shown on the map on pages CDF C3 CDF C10 repeater systems are assigned to various locations throughout the state and are shown on pages They are used as command frequencies for incident communications. These frequencies are available to ECCs for incident assignment, consistent with licensing and repeater deployment, in pre-approved areas of the state, with assignment by Region OCC. Use car-to-car talk around whenever possible.

Most initial attack dispatching is done on the Local Net. Local Net is used for emergency traffic, aircraft-to-ecc communications, and routine administrative traffic when the net is clear. Repeater locations are shown on the Unit maps. TACTICAL NETS Tactical frequencies are assigned to specific Units to allow for incident on-scene radio communications. Their purpose is to provide each incident a different frequency(s) to minimize interference in multiple incident situations, and to free up the local net for its designated purposes. Tac Nets are used for communications on an incident between the Incident Commander and the resources assigned to that incident. ECCs will manage and assign Tac Nets. Charts of Tac Net frequencies and assignments are located on pages of this booklet. 9

14 CALIFORNIA TRAVEL NET (CESRS) The Travel Net is a shared radio net under a formal agreement between Cal OES and CAL FIRE known as California Emergency Services Radio System (CESRS) in the Kenwood TK790 Group 3. Repeater Input MHz Repeater Output MHz Additional authorized use of CESRS is limited to ground resources travelling to/from an incident outside their home Unit. This channel will not be used as a tactical net, nor will it be used for routine administrative traffic. Authorized uses are: 1) Emergency vehicle-to-dispatch communications 2) Emergency vehicle-to-vehicle communications 3) Initial contact, recall and/or reassignment of personnel and equipment 4) Contact channel during long distance travel by overhead, strike team, etc. The purpose of this channel is limited to ground resources enroute to/from an incident outside their home base, and not used for routine administrative traffic or a tactical net. Contact should first be attempted by cell phone for traveling. Use CESRS in car-to-car talk around whenever possible. CONTINUOUS TONE CODED SQUELCH SYSTEM (CTCSS) CTCSS encoding provides continuous sub-audible tone to access mobile relays (repeaters) and provide access to receive tone protected radios. CAL FIRE CTCSS TONES: T1=110.9 Hz T17=67.0 Hz T2=123.0 Hz T18=71.9 Hz T3=131.8 Hz T19=74.4 Hz T4=136.5 Hz T20=77.0 Hz T5=146.2 Hz T21=79.7 Hz T6=156.7 Hz T22=82.5 Hz T7=167.9 Hz T23=85.4 Hz T8=103.5 Hz T24=88.5 Hz T9=100.0 Hz T25=91.5 Hz T10=107.2 Hz T26=94.8 Hz T11=114.8 Hz T27=97.4 Hz T12=127.3 Hz T28=118.8 Hz T13=141.3 Hz T29=173.8 Hz T14=151.4 Hz T30=179.9 Hz T15=162.2 Hz T31=186.2 Hz T16=192.8 Hz T32=203.5 Hz *NOTE: The above tones are the standard approved by CAL FIRE, FIRESCOPE Communications, BLM, BIA, and the USFS within California. 10

Communications on the air tactics net are restricted to air-to-air use. There are exceptions: CAL FIRE Helitack crews on CAL FIRE incidents may, with approval from the Air Tactical Supervisor, transmit on CAL FIRE Air Tactics 4, 5, 6, 21, 22, 23 or 24 (whichever is assigned) for necessary coordination with their own helicopter. No other ground units are authorized to transmit on the air tactics nets. AIR GUARD (AIR SAFETY GUARD) MHz, TX Tone 1 (110.9) This frequency is monitored (at all times) by all USFS, CAL FIRE and BLM aircraft and ECCs. Its use is restricted to aircraft, ECCs, Air Attack and Helitack Bases. This frequency is restricted to the following uses: 1) Air-to-air emergency contact and coordination 2) Ground-to-air emergency contact, including emergency hailing by crews in critical danger. 3) Initial call, recall, and re-direction of aircraft when no other contact frequency is available. CAL FIRE VHF-AM RADIO FREQUENCIES VHF-AM ("Victor") radio frequencies are available for incident use. These frequencies are shared throughout California by CAL FIRE and USFS. Due to FCC regulations and the need for close frequency management, use of these frequencies is prohibited without the approval of the Region Coordination Center. ECCs will place requests for VHF frequencies with the appropriate Region Coordination Center (North Ops or South Ops). 11

16 The following frequencies are authorized for CAL FIRE/USFS use: VHF FAA-FCC Air to Air Operations Air to Air Operations Air Tanker Base Ground Control/Operations Air to Air Operations Helicopter Air to Air Operations Helicopter Air to Air Operations Air to Air Operations The Region Coordination Centers may assign other VHF frequencies for specific incident support, depending on current FAA/FCC authorizations. AIR-TO-GROUND COMMUNICATIONS Designated air-to-ground frequencies for use in California are: MHz CDF Air to Ground 1 (Transmit/Receive Tone 16) MHz CDF Air to Ground 2 (Transmit/Receive Tone 16) MHz CDF Air to Ground 3 (Transmit/Receive Tone 16) MHz USFS AG MHz USFS AG MHz USFS AG MHz USFS AG MHz USFS AG MHz USFS AG MHz USFS AG-53 USFS air-to-ground frequencies are assigned geographically. Normally, incident air-to-ground traffic is restricted to the Incident Commander (IC) and/or Operations Section Chief and Helitack crews. Individuals, crews, engines, and dozers needing air support should place their request with the IC, Ops, or other appropriate line officer on the assigned Tactical Net. CAL FIRE, USFS, and BLM contract aircraft, including air tankers, lead planes, air attack planes, smokejumper planes, and helicopters, can dial up any frequency between 150 and 174 MHz. Copters 202 and 205 also have LF and UHF capability. CAL FIRE Call-When-Needed (CWN) air attack planes have limited frequencies. ECCs will assign the air-to-ground frequency to be used by CWN aircraft. ECCs are responsible for frequency management. Check with ECC if in doubt about an assigned frequency. Report serious interference to ECC ASAP. All CAL FIRE helicopters and air attack aircraft have tone encoders and can activate mobile relays when necessary. 12

17 Incident Commanders should know which air-to-ground frequency is normally assigned for initial attack in their area. Unless the ECC advises otherwise, assume all aircraft will be monitoring this frequency. If you are unable to contact aircraft on assigned air-to-ground frequency, call ECC for assistance. Remember to talk to aircraft when they are off to one side. Directly overhead = No contact.

20 Emergency Traffic Only: Radio users will confine all radio traffic to an emergency in progress or a new incident. Radio traffic that includes status information such as responding. Emergency Traffic: Term used to gain control of a radio frequency to report an emergency. All other radio users will refrain from using that frequency until cleared for use by an ECC. Resume Normal Traffic: Self-explanatory. PERSONNEL & EQUIPMENT CALL NUMBER INSTRUCTIONS Individuals having their own assigned radio number should use that number regardless of the type of radio unit they are using (base, mobile, HT). Individuals that do not have their own radio number and are using a vehicle assigned to someone else should use the vehicle radio id number with the prefix "Unit." Operators of engines, transports, supply vehicles, dozers, and dozer tenders will normally use the call number assigned to the vehicle. Whenever a hand-held radio ("handie-talkie") is used by an individual with a permanently assigned radio identifier, that person will continue to use his/her identifier. If the personal portable radio is assigned to a functional vehicle, the identifier for that radio will be the same as the vehicle, except that the letters "HT" will be inserted after the descriptive indicator. For example, Engine 2460 would be HT When a Fire Crew Captain is working with a crew, use the appropriate crew number. Example: Ishi Crew 2 CDCR camp vehicles, when utilizing CAL FIRE frequencies, will use the following clear text identifiers: Example: Ishi Conservation Camp CDCR vehicles Call sign "Ishi Corrections One", etc. The operating procedures and frequency control are under the command of the local Unit ECC. RADIO IDENTIFICATION PLAN FOR UNIT PERSONNEL AND EQUIPMENT Standard radio identifiers will be used by all personnel using the CAL FIRE radio system. Radio identifiers consist of numbers or alpha-numeric combinations proceeded by an appropriate descriptive indicator. If you do not have an assigned radio ID, please contact your local Telecom representative to assist you in obtaining one. Descriptive indicators will be used statewide for both routine and emergency traffic. Radio identifiers will be used for all radio transmissions except when an individual or resource is assigned to a position on an incident using the Incident Command System (ICS). The individual or resource will then use the ICS radio call assigned to that position. (Reference HB ) 16
