Hey man. We have Minitor 5/Vs. They're not too bad, except our Dispatch system switched primarily to 800 about a year & 1/2 ago. The initial dispatch frequency is still simulcast on VHF, but they also changed our operating frequency to a completely separate channel that we cannot monitor with our pagers =[. This was done to allow direct Fire to EMS communication (and to save money). However, it makes it extreeemely difficult to know whether or not we need to continue POV response to incidents like alarm activations and other "possible"-type incidents. Why do you ask??

I am sorry but I don't understand the second sentence of your comment.

thx for the add and welcome from Sicily, firefighter

i've been great! went skydiving on sunday...no good calls at work lately!! but i guess for us to have a "good" call, someone else is having a bad day! how have you been?

You guys staying dry over there? We got enough of Fay to get called in & soak up some nice 14-hr OT but that's about it... Damn storm sucks!

for a while there, we were getting structure fires every shift! it's slowed down a bit though

i am doing great! how are you? any structure fires lately?

Hey man how's it going??
