Those are the antennas for the mobile repeaters for DC's 800MHz P25 trunked radio system.

Thanks for posting Trey, I don't get back to the 202 too much anymore to catch up on all the new apparatus and stations renovations.

There are 9 Seagrave wagons in production at this time. I've also heard an Aerialscope to replace our Tower, Hazmat Unit, and multiple refurbs.

It has been assigned to the Fleet Maintenance Division for multiple years now. They use it as a tow truck. I haven't heard of it being used for rescue-capabilities in many years.
