So many more Medical calls, and static ridden SB City calls. Nature of Reporting, It’s all “Static.” LOL avoid the static and drama, keep your head clear!
Thanks! Appreciate the report.
Welcome. I do my best. Learning the Journalistic dynamics, procedures and resources of Our County. Very interesting endevours and never ending calls and experiences. Trying to gather the news and not becometh bias or a component. LoL Too Deep for the weak! LOL
Now is HMA a crime or is there an H&A meaning I am not gathering, They say “under the the influenvce or HNA” or something to that effect. So confused. LOL Google knows Isshhhh on a Code H&A. LoL HMA is a Hispanic male, not synonimous with an HAA, or possibly HNA? WTH?
If police radios contained sim cards and transmitted on a redundant VOIP channel, we wouldn’t need to worry about static, and the words could be transcribed automatically.
If the internet fails for some reason, the traditional radio signals could be utilized.
I wonder if enforcers would be opposed to the increased transparency for some reason.
Remember that officer activity is public property; we can demand transparency if we feel it is appropriate.
Thank, Youuuuu! Right!
