Don’t know where staging is but briefing will be at the Tehama Fair Grounds in Red Bluff.
OES T3 ST from XSA leaving at 2200 for 0700 report time
Any possible needs for Type 6’s?
En route to the Red Bank incident, limited info except this forum. Anyone have frequencies?
It’s all Calfire IA at the moment, Command 7 Tone 2. Tomorrow expect at least A/G to change.

Are there any good online scanner feeds for this incident? TIA
scancal.org/live.html has command, air fm and air/ground on priorities for this fire. MP3 stream so will need to use WinAmp, Itunes etc on desktop or an app like VLC on mobile. You can type in norcalscan.live directly into an mp3 streamer to get going.
Thanks for the info, much appreciated! Can’t get it to work on iPhone. I’ve tried Safari, Chrome, Aloha and VLC. I must be missing something?
in the VLC app on iPhone (orange icon with white traffic cone), click the cone in upper left, select network Stream, then in the grey bar up top with a sample URL, type in norcalscan.live

Finally got it working, thank you!
Sorry if this isn’t the place for this but I thought I saw a link to a map somewhere for this fire. I scrolled back and can’t find anything. Anyone have any links for the fire map?
I’m having issues too. My WiFi is messing with me, maybe thats why. Typed it into the grey bar and nada.
I learned that you have to be patient when pressing the “buttons” on my VLC app for iPhone. Press the link once and it may take a few seconds but it will connect. Pressing the link more than once just locked things up.
