I'm sorry! I didn't realize that you didn't know that -- just figured that you knew since this was the "scanner" forum. :doh::stupid:

They are very calm and they are calling out their names, they never call out their names on a real fire, and least not that I've ever heard.

Yes they do. LUNAR = Location, Unit, Name, Area, Reason for Mayday. If it's a Mayday, there wouldn't be more companies. Companies are determined by the size of the fire, what level they're on, etc etc. A RIT (Rapid Intervention Team) is established on all working fires, and if a firefighter calls out a MAYDAY, they're used to retrieve the downed firefighter.
With that said, if they're training on a Friday night, it's most likely on an abandoned structure they'll burn this weekend (or in the near future)

Sounds like they are doing a live burn, I heard Huntingtown and St. Leonard, not sure who else is there.
