Needham had a fire Saturday night - all comms on 453.075 R

1926 PM - 109 Meadowbank Road - possible fire upstairs - caller
disconnected - cross streets are Eliza Circle and Blacksmith Drive

1927 - "E4 respond also per C2"

1928 - PD says smoke at house

1929 - hydrant at 97

1929 - hydrant at 105

1930 - E3 there is a hydrant behind E1

1930 - smoke from Side B - probable house fire - per C2

1931 - E4 has a open hydrant - hook up to Eng 1 - (or something like that)

1933 - working fire - get coverage for stations - notify C1 and C2

1934 - Eng 1 in a mask - double - 1 fill 1 - 3 throw stick

1936 - L1 come via other end of Mdw Brook - L1 is out of position -
back up and come in the other way

1936 - frozen hydrant - need hydrant higher than #105

1936 - E4 laying in

1936 - need Eng for RIT - get 2nd dispatcher

1937 - L1 help E4 with line

1937 - #95 for the 2nd hydrant - L1 help with 4 inch line

1939  - could you start a 2nd alarm please

1939 - hydrant at 74 also - per dispatcher

1941 - Eng 100 to Eng 1, half a tank

1941 - Westwood Eng 5 seeks directions - talks over someone

1941 - Westwood Eng 5 seeks escort from cop car in Needham Center to
Blacksmith Dr

1944 - fire is in attic

1946 - double

1946 - cut the water - shut down the hydrant

1946 - WE5 has the cop car

later they struck a 3rd alarm

I think I have all the radio traffic on a tape - it was a real typical
New England fire with multiple challenges

Maybe a new rule is needed - if anyone reports a frozen hydrant,
immediately strike an extra alarm
