Yeah, nice work with the photoshop!!!! had me for a sec there.

It started as a police persuit from the city up the Saw Mill onto 87 to the Tappan Zee and the suspect then jumped.

Hawthorne had 2 ambulances there. Pleasantville had one and 87A1 from Grasslands. Pleasantville's second ambulance was put on standby and an Ambulance from Elmsford responded but I beleive they were not needed.

AHH 5000 feet of 5"!!!! kuddo's to those that have to re-pack all of it and might I add a very good looking pack in the picture. But yeah, keep that hose far away from me!

I would hook up the ignition sense only because that radio requires about 10 amps to opperate and I don't like taking that current from the factory vehicle wiring. You should harwire the power cable to a constant hot and the ground to a chasis ground as close to the radio as possible, do not run the ground to the battery and your ignition sense wire to the ignition wire in the steering column (or if your cig lighter is ignition you can hook up the sense wire to that also).

Criminology. Maybe a Science. Journalism. I found those most interesting. Or if your into film, take a film/film history class.

Don't waste your time looking for them. Tones for various agencies aren't given out for a reason.

Lets see I can think of Whelen, Federal Signal, Code3/PSE Amber, Sound Off Signal, Nova Electronics, Star Signal, and 911EP. I have to say that Whelen, Nova and Federal Signal are at the top of my favorites list. As far as history, there is a lot of history behind Whelen and Federal Signal. Whelen had the first strobe lightbar (which I'm sure some people here remember) and you can never forget the old Federal Signal rotators! As far as your question to Sound Off, I have installed thier products before and I don't think they are as good as those of the bigger companies mostly because the bigger companies like Whelen and Federal Signal make thier own parts in thier own factories, except for actual light bulbs and L.E.D.'s and pour lots of money into thier engineering departments. I work for a company that outfits police cars, EMS fly cars, Fire Chief vehicles and other types of cars/trucks in Southern Westchester. I've seen a lot of products and in the end Sound Off is requested maybe 25% of the time at most.

Pleasantville has one. Its a 1994 and still strong.

The new Rumbler by Federal Signal is simply a sub woofer for sirens, and it will only work with Federal Signal brand sirens. They are mounted in pairs, primaraly on each side of the vehicle behind the bumper. They are very large similar to a basketball. Also they are not meant to be used ofr extended periods, not more than about 15 to 30 seconds at a time for intersections. I've been hearing these things a lot lately and it literally makes your stomach shake. The draw back i don't like is there are wide open holes to let the sound out, which also let everything else in where there is a plain and simple subwoofer speaker like you would find in a suround sound speaker system. You need a seprate control box in addition to your siren unit to make them work, running a couple hundred bucks.

I would have to agree BFDCAR5. The Impala is great if your looking for good gas mileage and an overall lighter car. I like the Interceptor also, but only because more products are made to "fit" the car and lately i've noticed it is being offered with many more options. Now the Charger is awsome. it is smaller but the handleing of that car will leave both the Impala and the Interceptor in the dust, and if its got a hemi forget about it. I'm also noticing more products coming out for the Charger and some of the prisoner cages i've seen are real nice in how they are installed in the car.

I got one and i love it! it fits nicely on my helmet and with the way it works its easy to turn on even with all my gear on with air, just push down on it. in terms of brightness, its bright enough for me and also seems to be very durable. can't argue with the price either.

Yonkers PD:

Whelen-

Freedom B-Link LED Lightbar

700 linear grille led's

led mirrorbeams

the usual hide-a-way strobes

rear abmer led's on trunk lid

nothing special in my opinion.

Slick tops-

Whelen inner edge (rear)

Dual Talon (front)

led tir3 arrow stick on rear deck custom mount w/radar

led mirror beams

rear amber led on trunk lid

500 5mm leds on each quarter panel

all cars have cages, plastic rear seats, and rear window bars and flat panels (no arm rests)

also new laptop computer docks in each car.

They got 5 cars 3 with lightbars 2 slick tops not done in Yokers this time but by a company in Mamaroneck.

I would just like to say...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I feel sorry for the moron but I can't stop laughing, especially with these comments.

Wow this is hard. Picking up water and dodgeing birds needs to be mastered before the second level, with higher terrain. The instructions are in French so its like English to me. Good game find 648eng119.

I will try and get a picture up it will take a few days.

I use this plug with an alerting system which is baisically a timer connected to fire alarm type storbe lights that flash for about 30 seconds after the pager is activated. the unit that plugs into the back of the amplified charger self resets after it completes its 30 seconds. the amont of time can be adjusted from 1 second to 1 hour. PM me if you need more information.

As far as I know in my department we do not return to the station with lights on. After all its not an emergency. Avoids confusion too.

you will also need a permission slip from your chief to physically attend the class.

apparently i'm not as smart as i thought. the keypad part is driving me nuts. please help.

Ok here's the scoop. I found out that the bumpers the county police use are not made by pro-guard, go rihno, or setina. They are custom bumpers made by where I work useing machined metal and dock rubber bumpers (as in boats). Setina must have come to mind since thats all i ever install because they are so popular. I hope this information helps. the county usually gets about 20 new cars every year. P71Rob if you need more info pm me.

I might know. I built thier last batch of cars (before the mechanics build them) which included push bumpers aside from the grille and deck lights and wig wag. IF i remember correctly I think they are setina. I will double check.

Saying this from experience... i've gotten countless amounts of pagers from various vendors from 3's to 5's. I couldn't believe how hasty these tech's (or motorola factory direct) are when programing a pager for various departments. something to look for - make sure the pager is working in the right tone system that the true tones of the department and 60 have. i've adjusted this before and it helps. my 5 works as well as my old II in my opinion.
