Updated 10/18/23 - New Talkgroups updated based on recent listening.
Beginning Tuesday, 10 October, Chatham Metro Dispatch made significant changes in how the fire departments in Chatham County are dispatched. Previously, Savannah FD had its own dispatch talkgroup and fireground talkgroups, Metro Dispatch had a talkgroup for dispatching the other municipalities' fire departments and a set of fire tac talkgroups, and Chatham Emergency Services dispatched their fire units that covered the unincorporated county on their fire dispatch talkgroup and fire tacs. Now, Savannah FD, the other municipal FDs, and Chatham Emergency Service's fire units are all being dispatched by Metro Dispatch on what was Savannah FD's dispatch talkgroup and what used to be Savannah FD's fireground talkgroups and Metro's fire tac talkgroups have been turned into countywide fireground talkgroups. So far, the paging talkgroups for the municipal fire departments have remained the same, but it sounds like Savannah FD is getting new paging talkgroups. Additionally, the unit numbering system has changed; Savannah FD is still using their previous unit numbering scheme, but the other departments have changed theirs.
