How does a citizen call a 911 operator on a radio?
I press 911 on my HT.
- Mike KB3EIA -
I'll try it with my handheld before I turn in this evening.
I think Mike needs to consult one of his many charts. He seems
to be confusing his HT with his cell phone.
I think Lennie is making more assinine statements without the knowledge to
back it up.
One of the repeaters in my area also responds directly to a 9-1-1 input on
DTMF. No other "access tones" or anything else necessary...Of course you get
the 9-1-1 operator for that prefix, but it's a 10 second delay awaiting the
hand-off.
Once again, Lennie.......
Ya PUTZ!
