California Counties that have possibly redundant dispatch channels
several counties have a 'county fire dispatch channel' and a 'Cal Fire
dispatch channel' even though just 1 dispatch center controls both
channels
I have never understood this - can anyone explain?

actually - some of these counties do have 2 different fire dispatch
