And WHY does it take 911 operators to handle "every" call, Brain?

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...

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

What "90%" Brain?

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

NOT all of the calls warrant a Code 3 response.

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...

But in the CONTEXT which I made the comment, one 9-1-1 operator handles an
RFS (request-for-service) on the phone with the RP (reporting party) while
another monitors the phone call and dispatches the appropriate assets.

Somehow I think you knew that, so I'll just cut your trolling line right
here.

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.

Whoa! Here too.

Do all calls warrant being answered?

That's not what you wrote, Brain.

Shall I back up a couple posts, RE-POST what was written, and ONCE AGAIN
have two-weeks worth of your newsgroup excrement in which to rub YOUR
nose...?!?!

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

Best back up, PuppetBoy. If I re-post the complete, IN-CONTEXT post,
you're gonna look stupid...AGAIN...

Whoa! Here too.

Glad to hear it. Ohio always has had a great emergency response
reputation, even before 9-1-1 was implemented.

Did I say otherwise...?!?! If so, please cite the post wherein I did say

Yes, you are.

And you're digging yourself in deeper with every post every day.

I'd have thought you'd have learned by now.

Does your WIFE read your antics? Does she know how thoroughly you
humiliate your family name?

First you want to pick on my kids, now you want to pick on my wife.

No wonder you said you've been divorced so many times.

You've already been asked once to cite the post wherein you claim I said

You haven't doen THAT yet either.

Are YOU taking credit for this system, Brain?

I'm not "picking" on your wife, Blockhead.

I ASKED if she "...read your antics?" and further asked if she was aware
how you "thoroughly humiliate your family name?"

Since YOU already quoted it in this same post, I need not go back for that
one.

Thanks. (...you really do make this a lot easier than you realize!)

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

LHA / WMD

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.
