CHICAGO FIRE DEPARTMENT
Dispatching Radio Frequencies
Chicago is divided into, two dispatch area’s. Main (North) and Englewood (South.) The south branch of the Chicago River / Sanitary Ship Canal (which runs just north of Interstate 55/Stevenson Exp.) is the dividing line. North of the Canal – MAIN, south of the Canal - Englewood. Prior to this change approximately twenty years ago, the dividing line between Main and Englewood, Fire Alarm Offices, was 39th Street/Pershing Road.
In the next couple of years, the Chicago’s Fire Department - Fire Suppression Companies, will go to an all digital radio system in the UHF freq. range.
