Love this station. We have four plywood sections we used in the same way they do here. One of them had holes in the sides. You had to take off your airpack crawl in put it on and then take it off before you moved on.

What's up with the audio? It seems like the 2 mic channels have been separated. It just sounds weird on my headset one side just goes silent when the other person is talking

Depending on what Editing software you are using, you may be able to make the Speaker set "Mono-channel" Instead of stereo, Or you may be able to simply normalize the Audio. And for the Ride along, I Love to see them! Great Job on Editing BTW, The Videos look and sound very professional. @@HeroesNextDoor

In the beginning I was wondering why this station seemed so familiar. I began to think that you already did this one. But then I remembered that I (obviously) saw it on _Station Saturdays_ on the SMFR PIO channel. They showcased when they first moved in there...

@@HeroesNextDoor Not really, as far as I can tell. But it's also relatively new, the "Station Saturday" of it came out in Juli 2021. The only thing I don't recall from the original tour is the training area above the vehicle bay with the changable interior design, which is a genius addition.

Make sure you keep testing your fire department doors and order the food if you need to

Just my .02 cents…being a a member of an older big city FD in the Northeast, these videos don’t help when the stations in your department are basically falling apart , with leaking pipes, rodents, parking issues, etc. But at the same time I’m proud to work in a department where there are real fire stations with some character.

Maybe try and use these videos to show the community and politicians that change needs to happen and increased support is the only way to survive. However we all feel the same way. Sometimes even nostalgic about our old houses/stations

Interesting he said, "it could be considered a quint." I asked Eric and did some research a couple years ago and all the ladders (only two for SMFR) and towers (rest of the aerial devices) are classified as quints.

Great video

From what I’ve seen with South Metro, they don’t have any engine/truck stations. Their stations will either be an engine, or a truck.

Mike love the channel , been following you for awhile now . But I have to say that lately the videography has been a bit off . Second cameraman consistently in the background, at one point he squeezes between you, the Lieutenant and the 1st camera operator 1:53 . There have been extreme close up shots and a few out of focus briefly. I hope this is just you working out the kinks of a new 2 camera system, but the last few videos have been off because of the poor videography and shot set ups. Like I said I love the channel and will continue to watch
