Friday 9/2/05 Scanner thread...

[BeTheChange]

It looks like there is a pathetic news blackout... but lots of stuff is happening on the scanners.

Post here.

[BeTheChange]

1. Cloverdale hospital filling up..

Trying to figure out where to evac to next

[elehhhhna]

2. KEEP POSTIN G ifo please.

[Ms. Clio]

3. I've got the dual feed, should I try to listen to just one of them?

If so, which?

[BeTheChange]

4. Im listening to Troop B and the Dual feed..

I think some of these feeds are mislabeled. Hopefully, over the course of the day we can sort them out.

It says LAPD, but it just sounds like air and logistical support..

[Ms. Clio]

8. mine says LA State System Left: All Scan: Right:Trooper A/B

It's very hard to hear, though, and I wonder if I could get better clarity on another feed.

[BeTheChange]

10. Mine doesnt have text tags..

are you getting mostly hospital evac stuff?

NG Troop B is mostly quiet since the state department SOS this morning to evac a member of Spain's parliment, Mrs. Munoz, from the second floor of the convention center immediately.

[BeTheChange]

11. Medivacing people from Cloverleaf .. maybe Cover dale..

to "INternational"

[Ms. Clio]

13. Washington does not have any teams left -- not sure for what

[Ms. Clio]

12. There's been a lot of VIP shit going on since early this morning

Did you hear earlier that the Chairman of Murphy Oil and a supreme court justice were escorted into the city?

[BeTheChange]

15. No, I actually slept a little nt

[Ms. Clio]

16. I signed off shortly after I heard that, around 7:00

So I've had some sleep too, or this would be impossible.

[BeTheChange]

14. They contacted Washington.. washington doesnt have any teams left..

I dunno if washington is a company, or what.. this is national guard feed... maybe washington is a person.. unclear.

[CabalPowered]

5. Does anyone have links?

Mine are all dead. TIA

[BeTheChange]

6. Links

http://scannerbuff.net/hurricane.php

[BeTheChange]

7. Request for someone to do a fly over of Jesuit Bend Nursing center..

Nobody has heard from them..

[BeTheChange]

9. Er..

Jesuit Nursing center in Bend, LA...

[BeTheChange]

17. University Hospital is evacuated nt

[BeTheChange]

18. Does that mean Tulane is evaced?

[BeTheChange]

19. Still rioting on the causeway..

something about needing 8-10k service personell

[Ms. Clio]

20. what was that about personnel and the Causeway?

[Ms. Clio]

21. something about 30,000 gallons of water, 500 pillows, 500 blankets

[Ms. Clio]

22. My left is medevac, my right is something else

[Ms. Clio]

23. Are they trying to get stuff to people on two bridges?

[BeTheChange]

25. I dunno what the supplies are for...

Do you know where international hospital is? Did you hear the medivac saying they needed a transport for 100 people stuck on the top of an apartment

[Ms. Clio]

27. BTC, I think I should listen to just one or the other?

I'd probably do a little better with the right.

[BeTheChange]

29. Totally understand.

[Ms. Clio]

30. all right, the left is medevac stuff, the right is cops or something

That's what I'll try to concentrate on.

[BeTheChange]

32. Okay, finally know what Im listening to

Coast Guard on left, LSP on right.
Ive got National Guard B running on Windows Media.

I feel downright schizophrenic.


Im very excited about how much rescuing appears to be happening.

[Ms. Clio]

33. Yes, to hear those helicopters is some comfort

[Ms. Clio]

34. lost that feed -- looking for another

[BeTheChange]

36. Here

http://www.radioreference.com:8080/lspbtr

[BeTheChange]

24. There's a riot there..

they were freaking out about it earlier on every channel.

Its weird how they talk about it for like 2 minutes.. then it all disappears. I dunno if they change channels.. or what.

[Ms. Clio]

26. They go car to car or 10-21 (call on telephone), it seems?

[BeTheChange]

28. They do seem to do that.. but I dont know how they all know at once..

to like, immediately change over, when there are lots of them involved.

[Ms. Clio]

31. Would they all shift to another frequency at once? It does seem odd

[smurfygirl]

35. I am probably wrong but the system we have here

will switch frequencys when over loaded or to much traffic. our radios are programmed to do this. it sounds like my right feed is scanning all frequencys and my left coast guard and maybe transport.

I'm not hearing riot anything but lots of injury's are being called in for immediate need of 30-40 ambulatory vehicles.

[BeTheChange]

37. Im not hearing any of that...nt

[BeTheChange]

38. I think that while we have a bunch of LAPD, and what not..

The scanners are all picking up different channels.

[smurfygirl]

39. there is a burping monster on my left feed

it's really hard to hear my left channel.

[BeTheChange]

40. Im so mad at myself.. I had a navy feed earlier..

and I accidently clicked on another link and lost it..
Bastards...

Sorry about the burper. Earlier, there was a guy yelling Yeehaw like he was a top gun student and Jester was dead.

[Ms. Clio]

41. I'm picking up something now called Gulf Coast ARES Net

A message is being relayed for someone -- they are safe, have water, but everything is gone.

Sad sad sad.

[BeTheChange]

43. That feed is alot less hectic..

seems that they actually know what the fuck they are doing.

[Ms. Clio]

44. Is this the Coast Guard?

[Ms. Clio]

[Ms. Clio]

Are they getting the fuck out and leaving the rest?

[smurfygirl]

76. I don't know. the superdome feed is hard to understand

I thought he was saying non point aircraft and was wondering what that meant. now I want to know why they are sending non hoist aircraft only.

me, feels pretty much like I do right now.

[smurfygirl]

89. they are trying to confirm some swat teams are moving

into the downtown area. I am also picking up what sounds like mp's in the background. really faint though. seems they are clearing out something.

this could actually be swat though. I'm really surprised this is coming through although it cuts out and is so faint I have to hold my ear to the speaker. amazing.

also they are evacing 150-200 people. there is trouble 6 blocks away and they want out before nightfall.
