Every single FF gets a portable? Nice!

Where can I get an application for Mount Kisco FD?

Did Goosetown Communications see them coming?

Good job Joey! $95,000

As far as FF Safety it's a great idea but if not

used correctly... Oh boy!

I think what they're doing is every firefighter on the fireground will have one availible to them.

Both Yorktown and Bedford Hills already have one HT for every riding position on their vehicles and we're in the process of doing the same thing.

For us, every riding position will have a UHF portable radio for fireground op's and the MPO will have the portable on the trunked system when it goes online.

Currently we switch over to fireground at the IC's orders. Once we get a few more HT's in the rotation, switching over will be automatic.
