So again, how does the 911 operator with the radio talk to me?


I am sure it's something like "goo goo gaaa gaaa". They are pretty

good at
talking to a person on thier level without talking down to them.

Typical response of someone who got his tie stuck in his zipper.

Probably the same way the 910 and the 912 operator does.

Why would the 9-1-1 operator WANT to talk to you?

Did YOU initiate the RFS via autopatch? If not, they have nothing to say
to you...9-1-1 operators wait for you to call them, not vice-versa.

And if you DID initiate the call, I imagine they talk to you the same way
they'd talk to me...In English. If you DIDN'T initiate the call, I guess the
9-1-1 operator isn't GOING to talk to you.

I am wondering where you're trying to take this and what point you're
trying to save from all of this spinning, Brain. If you don't initiate the
call, they aren't going to talk to you...REGARDLESS if the call came via
hardline, wireless or Amateur Radio autopatch.

I realize that there's a bit of common sense in that that's hard for you
to assimilate, but it's true.
