- PRCC=Penobscot Regional Communications Center
Most of the FD's in Penobscot County are dispatched by
PRCC on 158.775 (xmit) using multiple towers and PL's.
153.740 (rec) is commonly called COMM 2.
Larger cities
and towns have their own dispatch frequency but are
still dispatched by PRCC.
Bangor and Lincoln do not use PRCC for dispatching.
Most of the departments use a two digit town/city code plus a 1 or 2 digit unit code.
Apparatus is assigned numbers as follows:
1=Engine 7=Utility
2=Engine 8=Rescue/Ambulance
3=Engine 9=Ambulance
4=Tanker 10=
5=Ladder/Aerial 11=
6=Brush 12=
As an example, 301 is a Brewer Engine. 364 is a Tanker from Orrington. 309 is a Brewer Ambulance.
Officers/members are identified in two ways. Most use a four digit code that is their
town/city ID plus a two digit within town/city ID, such as 2401, 2404, etc.
Some identify as town/city name plus a within town/city ID, for example Mattawamkeag 12.
