Medstar callsigns?
« on: July 20, 2011, 02:46:40 PM »
I have been listening to the scanner (sascan) off and on all day and I was wondering how many medstar teams run each day and what are their call sings? Does anyone know how busy medstar would be (jobs attended). cheers

MedSTAR use similar callsigns to SAAS. There is MedSTAR 71 and MedSTAR 81. I've also heard MedSTAR 143, meaning they start at 1400 and I believe the 3 means they are the 3rd retrieval team (on call).

As far as I am aware, there are 2 teams on base with 1 on call. I've heard they have at least 3 retrievals a day.

Bearing in mind that there is Medstar and Medstar Kids or paedeatric sections.

There is also a Medstar 35, and MRC
