Looking across the databases there are quite a few discrepancies in SFD's talkgroups. 1648-1808 are agreed upon almost everywhere, but everything else is weird.

Here's the data I've compiled:

Click it to see the full size version. I realize not everyone's running 2560x1024 and you might get annoyed with horizontal scrolling :) You can grab the Excel file here. I know the labels are correct for the channels listed here but unfortunately that doesn't go past 9 or give talkgroups.

Here is what I know:

1616 is the EMERG TG.
1840 i've logged SFD referring to as "Command 11". I've logged the EOC and hazmat units here but it's used rarely.
1872 I've logged SFD traffic here but can't say for sure what it's use or name is. I've logged alot of training comms and none on this TG.
1904 I've logged some SFD traffic here and confirmed them calling it "Channel 14"
1936 i've logged some onsite ops here but only once.
1968 is Dispatch for AMR ambulance.
2000 is Medic one Dr. when they are not using the phone which is rare. Trauma doc sometimes comes up here too.
2032 same as above but for Trauma doc.
2064 never logged any traffic here
2096 i've confirmed SFD calling it "channel 10". They ran their Seafair ops here last year. The SFD EOC used this TG to coordinate fire response for the disaster drill earlier this month. I've also heard rare calls get sent here to repsond, maybe to foil the press? ie a Suicide Jumper once.
2128 I've logged SFD traffic here and one time dispatch referred to it as "Channel 16"
2160 Never logged any traffic
2192 I've logged training ops here.
2224 never logged any traffic here
3184 never logged any traffic here

I logged SFD using 2256 and 3056 for ops during the disaster drill earlier this month.

I also have logged SFD training and drills on 2352, 2384, 2448, 2512, 2992, 3024, and 3088

All of the above is accurate to within the last year, most activity within the last six months.

Exactly what I was looking for, thanks!


I see two channel 10s; all of the databases list 1936 as 10A, and yet 2096 has been confirmed as 10A, both by your research and at least someone else. :?

Additional info....

TG1806 is also used for Medic operations at special events and Qwest Field for the Bike Medics.

You'll also hear training and drills on TG1806.

"Logged" means I have not personally heard radio traffic on them but the computer says they were active.
I do not leave the computer on every day but it's been on at least three one week (continuous) periods since January 1 09 and at least 10 hours a day other days.

I have NOT logged 2160 since (100205), nor 2224 since (090800).
2288 (022609) and 2320 (030109) both had HazMat training on them when heard.
2256, 2352 and 2384 were all heard around the first of March 09.
I have also heard Seattle Fire units on the following talkgroups since Feb 09 and they did not
appear to be mutual aid situations:
2260 2416 2448 2480 2992, and possibly 3024. (Fire training center in Seattle?)
TGs 1840, 1872, 1904, 1936, 2064, 2096, 2128 have all been mechanically logged since Feb 09.
