ALL THAT CASH- MILLIONS- ON THE 911- DISPATCH CENTER.. I FEEL A LOT SAFER NOW- KNOWING THE SYSTEM CRASHES WHEN AN EMERGENCY STRIKES.. SWELL.
OH NELSON PETERS? WHERE ARE YOU?
( a noun, a verb and 9-1-1)
OH NELSON PETERS? WHERE ARE YOU?
( a noun, a verb and 9-1-1)
- Ed Rose David, this discussion is ending on behalf because the system in place today is not the 1996 system. That was the funky 800 mega hertz system that had dead spots in many locations and sucked at working inside larger square footage buildings.
But until I hear what went wrong I'm not ripping on anyone but most likely will after hearing what happened. There is always the perfect conditions that can knock out any electronic system but I don't see this as one! - David C Roach Ed Rose- My Father was a highly respected electronics engineer at Magnavox. I learned plenyt about electronics; and engineering.
I am in IT/COMPUTER SCIENCE. I know computer systems crash when they are overloaded; or other reasons..
I stand by my assertion that we had an EPIC FAIL; and all those who have been out front - tooting their political honrs; crowing about their magnificence and protecting the public- well- they are all in holes hiding from media and public questions..
power failure? Its brand new!
hardware? brand new. Soft ware? brand new.
network? brand new!
well- a couple years old- so all the bugs are out of it by now.
the 1996 system? yes- maybe out dated- but they were talking since then - no action- they should have combined/merged back then - 20 years? sitting on their thumbs.. talk talk talk.. when they should have been acting- ungrading all along; spending the cash needed to to the job.
so- all this post 911-/HOMELAND SECURITY / police/fire/ ems/ anti domestic terrorism/ disaster civil defense- has been one BIG EPIC FAIL!
so- all these preppers; y2k's er off the gridders- who have a stockpile of supplies food water guns; generators; etc- who have been ridiculed as crackpots- well- they did just fine
its the rest of us who trusted the system; the govt the authorities the elected officvilas- to protect us- who have failed us..
less govt? I think we need more- or at least more competent govt..
again- negligence. failure to load test; crash test this..
Thomas F. Didier(since hes about the only Ccman whos accessible and conscientious about residents concerns of all districts.. thanks didier!! for the great work..
- Ed Rose David, before the 800 system the FWPD dispatchers had to relay info to the ACSD dispatchers, who then passed on the info to the Sheriff cars. It was a sad comedy when they both where involved a chase on foot or in cars.
Once the 800 system came to Allen County the various police and some fire departments, but not EMS could talk to each other. Some State Police cars had the 800 system but not all. Several Vol Fire Depts could not directly TW other Departments on mutual aid fires.
County to County had mostly go through dispatchers to get to the cars.
With the new state wide, nation wide departments can TW counterparts directly. The biggest disasters in 911, hurricane Katrina, and even Sandy caused single channel overloads and various departments could not talk to another.
The new system is doing away from this. If a major fire requires more channels for communications it just happens by computer priority programming. Lower level departments like say the Planning Department or Parking Enforcement would be lower priority to use an open channel.
In fact it is pretty cool how they adapted some military communication system techniques.
From what I heard the dispatchers and field units had no problems. So it APPEARS the new radio system worked. The problem was with incoming phone calls to the dispatchers. I would guess that is part of the NEW DISPATCH CENTER but not sure it has a thing to do with the radio system.
You might know, but if I recall right the telephone system is run on the Spillman (SP?) computer software, that the city has used for decades.
But if you are hell bent on blaming the costly radio system, have at it! But you might find out it had nothing to do with it.
I too have been around electronics most of my life both in work and my Dad's field of work, plus him being a ham radio operator for over 70 years. - David Christopher Roach Ed Rose so why cant i listen to scanner traffic on my computer. ? heck- id even sing up some form with the FWPD for permission if they are worriedabout bad guys..
we have all this super scientific electronics communication/ spynet; military industrtial complex surplus systems..
bla bvla bla..
we have been fcked by nelson peters for a proverbial pot of porridge; and anoun and a verb and a 9-1-1- system that doesnt work when its most needed..
time to fire the architect; and find some who isnt an idiot..
