Peety3 they could have been. Look I am a Communications NCO for the army and simple as that if radios fail someone dies. It can happen to you what if your wife or you were having a medical emergancy and the EMS crews werent notified? All of a sudden you feel very worried about this situation now huh

Why so much whining over an HVAC problem? I'm as tired as the rest of you when officials immediately say "public safety wasn't compromised", but who really cares if you had to switch your radios to a different mode? Spin the knob, say "10-4 good buddy", and get on with it. The system actually has these alternate modes so you can talk, and it actually worked. That's a lot better than most cities.

San Antonio / Bexar County Public Safety Communications, Dispatch and E911 systems have failed numerous times over the past years and each time citizens/first responders are told that safety was not compromised. Nonsense…………………… Beginning in 2005 audits show that up to 25 % of calls fail to complete to 911 call takers. Since this time computer, CAD, radio and 911 networks have failed over and over again…………………… Two whistleblowers (a former Telecommunications Manager and a former SAFD procurement officer) have been illegally banned from public meetings and city facilities in an effort to stymie their efforts to expose the underlying reasons for the failures- especially the theft/misuse of tens of millions of dollars earmarked for Public Safety/E911/telecommunications support.
