Fleet/Mobile UIDs

Austin FD assigns a specific UID for each apparatus based on its apparatus identifier. If an apparatus changes stations or becomes a reserve unit, the radio is re-programed with the new UID to match its new apparatus identifier.

Austin FD's reserve apparatus fleet uses the following apparatus identifiers:

• Reserve Rescue units are RESCUE 58-59
• Reserve Brush Truck is BRUSH TRUCK 69
• Reserve Engines are ENGINE 71-89
• Reserve Ladders are LADDER 90-94
• Reserve Quints are QUINT 95-99
• Reserve Battalion is BATTALION 12

When a front-line company moves into a reserve apparatus, the radio identifier used over the air does not change. If Rescue 14 moves out of its front-line unit (RESCUE 14) and into the reserve (RESCUE 59), Rescue 14 will still identify itself as "Rescue 14" over the air, but the UID of the reserve unit will display on the scanner.

For most operational units, the UIDs have been assigned according to the following plan:

• -30xx UIDs are assigned to Engines
• -40xx UIDs are assigned to Quints/Ladders/Rescues
• -39xx UIDs and -49xx are assigned to Brush Trucks or other auxiliary apparatus
• -50xx UIDs are assigned to Battalion Chiefs and other command elements
• -550x UIDs are assigned to AFR (Aircraft Fire Rescue) Units
• -590x UIDs are assigned to Division/Assistant Chiefs (Command units)
