HT 1 is Heli-Tender 

RH 214 (I believe) is Rescue Helicopter

HOA, HOB and HOC are helicopters. They label them as A,B & C instead of 1, 2, 3 etc.

That's what I remember, I've been retired for 3 years now.

That is correct.

RH 214 is the Air Ambulance (Pilot, Helitac and 2 Paramedics)

HOA, HOB and HOC are the dispatch computer place holders, as Air Ops sends the Helos appropriate for the incident, then notifys MFD which Helos have been assigned.
