Same topic posted before. Enjoy! http://www.emtbravo.net/index.php?showtopic=27481

A previous thread about just such devices (lots of information posted in there): http://www.emtbravo.net/index.php?showtopic=17965

Just because someone is a suspect, does not mean they are guilty, nor that they are a "bad guy". What if you were in the wrong place, at the wrong time (hanging out with some friends) and this went down. You are arrested or detained as a "suspect" until you are found to not be one. Doesn't mean you are guilty of anything other than; being in the wrong place at the wrong time. I know what you mean, and chances ARE that they were involved somewhere, but never assume...

Ok, so with some of the posts recently mentioning them, I have been interested in spear-heading trying to get some stickers made up. The other Admins, Moderators, and myself came up with a few ideas, but before revealing them I wanted to open up the "floor" to the membership, to see what ideas everyone had. What is the interest? What ideas do you have? Do you prefer helmet stickers, bumper stickers, window stickers, or more than one? Let us know, and we'll go from there!!

That would be KED348 (Dutchess Co. 911 FCC ID) KED348 I would thereby assume that the KED### setup is the FCC ID for Public Safety dispatch departments.

Well Don, if you got more fires, I would probably be there too, and a lot faster, lol!

The sad part?? I plugged the address into the GPS in my Verizon phone: "No address found" Tried 'Grey Street': "No address found" Looked at the general map of the roads on teh GPS on my phone, sure enough, there was the street, but the search couldn't find it!!!! Don't get me started!

Well, after getting lost trying to find Gray St., we found ourselves behind E-2, and were on scene with them before 911 banged out the possible structure on Montgomery. Thought maybe we had lucked out!! sr71 and SPFC56-233 SHOULD have some pics up later, and fdphotounit if he posts them.

So, the sticker idea seems to be a winner. Does anyone have any SUGGESTIONS for what should appear on these?? We don't want to invest in any large bulk quantity of anything without some show of support. If YOU guys and gals are going to purchase them, shouldn't they show off something that YOU WANT, and YOU CHOOSE???

All I have to say is: Who is going to bail us out, the lowly taxpayers??

Yes, it does look like an oil tanker. Seems to me I have seen construction equipment in that private road for years though.

Maps.Live.Com Aerial View Click on "Bird's Eye View" for a good look at the house. Since maps.google.com won't show the ACTUAL address, the bet info they could give me was the Latitude and Longitude of the house, so for those with the time and patience, here it is! 41.580453, -73.775320

I did get to help with overhaul thank you very much!!

Lol, there's something wrong with you boy!

Units o/s were 39-1, 39-2, 39-4, 39-11, 39-15, 39-56, 39-67, 39-71, 39-81, 39-97, 42-12, 34-1, 34-13, and multiple EF tankers for water shuttle. Other engines were assigned to draft sites, including "39-21" (39-16 as acting 39-21), 39-14 relocated to EFFD HQ, Rombout relocated to EFFD St. 1, 39-17 I am not sure where they ended up (draft site I am assuming). I brought my camera with me, but forgot to grab some photos when I had the chance! Assistance for laddering the roof was rendered by Village of Fishkill with 42-12, since EF 39-46 is OOS for work being done on it.

It may be a possibility. We are not discounting anything at this point, BUT.... lets try and keep it simple in the beginning phases.

I may be mistaken, but I was under the impression that DC911 has a terminal with the "IAMRESPONDING" system up, and can view who is responding in, should someone call in, and can have an idea if a chief, captain, or lt is on the way to a scene, or to a firehouse.

I haven't used my HT1250 LS+ on Dispatch since the Simulcast, transition, I will have to see if I run into any of the same issues with mine!

Sadly, I have found that no matter HOW MANY lights and sirens you mount on the front of apparatus, people are ignorant, or just plain don't care these days! That, AND there comes a point when it becomes overkill, just IMHO.

HAHAHAHA!!! Priceless!!! And yet in good taste.... Great job!

It has always been my understanding that this really is a grey area. One side I have heard is that TECHNICALLY, you can have almost any color facing the rear, as it would not constitute a warning light in the sense that it does not face forward, and cannot be misconstrued as trying to "pull someone over" using it. On the OTHER hand, the V&T also states that for Vol. FF they can only use one, yes one, BLUE light. So therein it contradicts itself. And again, yes, it does depend on where you are, as some localities will break stones more than others. Again, this was just the interpretation I was under, although I may be wrong, and probably am, so please feel free to clarify/correct me!

Please look before you post a "new" thread. We developed one single thread to compile ALL Winter 2008 topics into one, since people were posting a new thread multiple times for the same storms, and each and every storm. Please continue ALL further storm topics here, as you can see someone has already posted this particular storm already: http://www.emtbravo.net/index.php?showtopic=29144

We'll certainly try and make sure that happens!!!

Lol, took the words RIGHT outta my mouth!
