I might have been wrong. Perhaps answering 90% of 911 calls is
acceptable practice in some localities. "Good enuf 4 Gubmn't Work."
Like the 911 operator that kept hanging up on "sniper" Lee Malvo.

We only

need one, maybe two on any call, if you allow for one being on the phone and
one on the radio...

But with Brittany Spears in your lap, all you can think about is Len's
testicles and my testicles?

Definitely nuts.

Shall I squeeze a bit harder, Brain? Or are you finished making a

fool
out of yourself...again...?


Exactly what are you squeezing, Steve?

Whatever it is, keep it away from me and quit being so gay.



You're the one who keeps signing posts "nuts" yet you accumse me opf being
gay.

Now that's cute.

And the ONLY way I think of your "testicles" (I think we can call them
that, as small as they must be) is in the provrbial vise.

And they obviously ARE being squeezed, because you keep hollering at me.

Sucks to be you, I guess.

Steve, K4YZ

Are you in a rage? Why don't I just accuse you of being a poor typist.

Those darned provrbial vises.

Ooh, Ouch, Ooh, Ouch!

No, no, not the jumper cables.

The LPN of Torture is putting it to me. Ooh, Ouch.

hihi

You're nuts.

Mark isn't here anymore because he got wise when we kept re-quoting

those
things he insisted he didn't say, yet was right in front of him. In THAT
regard, it was the only wise thing he ever did (ie: leave)

Like I said...I don't tolerate liars. Mark was proven to be a liar.
Lennie's been proven to be a lair, and now you are.


When you take a dislike to someone, you accuse them, villify them,
make them liars, stalk them, attack them, and start numerous smear
threads about them.


A "smear thread" insinuates that the thread was initiated with the intent
to mislead or misrepresent some "facts" about the person targeted, Brain.


That is correct. That would be you.

You must understand something, Steve. "Nuts" is not a medical term,
is not a diagnosis, and does not need a medical license to utter.

But you're still nuts.

But you've not explained why.

Yes I have.

No, you've not....other than to say I'm "nuts" becasue I dare to

question
you.


Question me? Is THAT what *#*YOU*#* Call it?!?

Interrogation is more like it. And I've told you that time and again.

Get a grip, man.

That's why I think you're nuts.


You think I am nuts becasue I won't let you get away with stupid
assertions that you can't/won't back up with some valid facts.


No. Read it again (and again if you have to). I think you're nuts
because you act nuts.

Put away the sodium penethol and jumper cables.

It just isn't going to work.

You'll never make me love Morse Code.


I don't care if you ever do or not. I'd just as well keep idiots like you
out of the narrowband parts of the spectrum.

I just want you to answer "What "major role" do the unlicensed radio
services play in "emergency comms", as you ahve suggested they do.


You tell me.

And so far all you've done is rum and hide from answering questions

about
YOUR assertions.


Yup, rumming and hiding.


My bad on the typo, but I think you got the idea.


Dunno if I do or not.

Am I hidden well enough for you to keep from finding me?

Oh darn, you keep finding me right after I reply to you! How do you
do it?

You are so good at this, and you're nuts.

What "90%" Brain?


Now dammit, Steve, you're the one who wanted to know why it takes a
911 operator to handle every 911 call.

See above. Retract your idiotic comment or forever be known as a
liar.

ALL of the 9-1-1 calls get answered where I live.


Whoa! Here too.

NOT all of the calls warrant a Code 3 response.


Do all calls warrant being answered?

We only
need one, maybe two on any call, if you allow for one being on the phone

and
one on the radio...


How does a citizen call a 911 operator on a radio?


Hmmmmm...there are several ways.

First of all is to use the autopatch if a licensed Amateur.

Second is to be an authorized user of the county dispatch network (which I
am)

Third is to...never mind...I could be at this all day...


I'll bet you could. Nuts.

I think Mike needs to consult one of his many charts. He seems
to be confusing his HT with his cell phone. :-)

If a ham punches in 911 on his or her HT on our local repeater system,
the call will indeed be patched into the local 911 center.

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!

Steve, K4YZ
