But why do you need to spend money on things that are done for free for the 50k members of hondaaccord.net etc.

No one is ridiculing you, just stating you want 1500 dollars for something that you can buy for 400. I looked before I typed, why don't you put yours on Ebay if it is worth what you want, its a world market place, should have no problems getting what you want. I looked and saw a similar coat for 200 bucks buy it now, and it was from 09, so still technically had 6 years left as opposed to 5, its easier to not say anything then to come here pitching wares for fantasy prices.

The last time we went to Yonkers was probably that 6th alarm in that H type, daily we go to respond north on BRP for car accidents, thats usually always 63 39 or 38 and 51 or 52's.

Only people I know who purchased own gear are guys on teaching circuit, they can't use dept issued gear.

No pct id on plates just year and rmp number.

Sorry man, that stuff goes for 400 bucks tops on ebay, look it up, plus its only got 4.5 years of service left in it.

By Larry Celona The New York Post NYPD cars are getting a new look — in the front and back. The department began replacing the decals on the front and rear hoods of all of its marked cars last month so that they read "NYPD Police" instead of just "Police." Police Commissioner Ray Kelly ordered the change after he saw a car marked "Police" driving erratically in December and thought it was from his department, sources told The Post.

We know where you will be, listening to your 'pilot program' scanner behind cover. And unless you have forty people on your grab team you won't have an opportunity to tag patients, especially when $hits on!

No one ever gets the two years under their belt, always removed or retired before it happens.

Why do you care? No one else who works here does. He is a puppet regardless of his name. and CofD is granted tenure after 2 years and at that point he can do as he pleases, meaning tell Commissioner to GFY but that hasn't happened in probably 30 or 40 years maybe even longer. I hope Nigro comes back, that guy is aces.

Monte North has a challenge and full course starting in January. Classes are on 233 off Bronx River. I have done it 4 times there. Only catch is that since they increased the hours of the overall program they are using a book that is kind of pricey at 200 but it has online material that removes 10 classes you need to attend. Excellent teachers and the facility is not half bad.

Think of what something like this would do to membership! Imagine being able to offer something other than 20 dollars a month for each year of service!

one really has something wrong with them if they spend 600 dollars on a radio to hear fire engines responding to automatic alarms.

Not that I would ever tell anyone to go to the Journal News for anything I was sent a link to a video of the LMFD Chief giving an interview. How about next time you want to give an interview you take the tobacco out of your mouth, you are the face of EVERY one of your members, the media is less than important when it would have take all of 2 seconds to take that out of your lip. http://www.lohud.com/article/20131124/NEWS/311240022/Residents-rescued-Yorktown-Heights-blaze-video-

Missed the fall deadline so looking for a spring class. I was told by one school that the new textbook that is REQUIRED is 200 dollars. Has anyone else heard of this? Not that I think he is lying but is their anyway around this? I don't actively use it and the local program here in Putnam is way too far away. Is everyone using the same text book? It was described to me as the red ortho book. Was also told that a mandatory online training program is now in the program. Thanks

Well being that we are the only people that would see it, it is rare. You sure your first name isn't Richard and Barry is a nickname?

No its a valid comparison. The error correction in TDMA is so sub par that it destroys the information so that its the ole talking in a fish tank. If you get even the most sensitive receiver you will still be dealing with the same nonsense. And then for the local govt.'s to be forced to pay 30 million to comply! If I can communicate with about 95% coverage with a cell phone tx'ing 600mw I should damn well be getting the same coverage with 4 or 5 and guess what, you don't.

Maybe a partial explanation but not the norm by any means. Flashover is rare.

Its too broad of a tactic. And unfortunately we are always dealing with people of different intelligence levels at all levels of leadership, paid or not. Controlling flow path and being aware of it is great and is extremely practical, but not for every circumstance. Yes new materials contain an extraordinary amount of energy from the hydrocarbon chains with in them, and yes no hole besides removing the roof will rid the amount of heat they generate, but, in a top floor fire in an apt building, how much do you really think you will have? All it takes is to be on the inside just once when they roof is pulled and you can see the difference almost immediately. And the powers that be are no attempting to introduce the new tactics of hitting it from the outside first then proceeding in to depts all over. The research is great, but what needs to be done is training, supervisors need to be trained to identify everything from wind gusts to building layouts and the affects an open door will have. Just simply stating control the flow path is pointless on a 2 family flat roof private dwelling, as always the main concern should be life.

Thank god I don't have to pay the westchester taxes like you all do. Total waste of money. And as far as digital anything being superior, TDMA is the reason why ATT wireless lost so many customers to Verizon, because the audio quality of the signal was so poor it caused them to ditch the whole system for GSM which is still sub par but somewhat acceptable. Digital communication has no place on the fire ground, nor do trunking systems or 7/800 systems. The lack of power and ability to communicate is all the reason you need. Unless you have had your behind on the line and needed the cavalry you won't understand the importance of a basic system.

If the temperature at the floor is 1128 degrees you are dead and no way would you even attempt to enter it. Not when your face piece melts to your face at what 500 degrees?

Where did you go to school? Or learn how to not read? That is what is bizarre here!

Or in your case pull the whole company out while the 10-45 is just around the hallway on the couch in the living room cause you need to wait for a line that is coming down the street cause the can man didn't want to disrespect the Lt and tell you no when he should have.

APCO 25 is not TDMA. TDMA is totally different. But get ready for garbled nonsense you can't understand. Digital systems suck. You can not understand people. And you need another 500 dollar scanner to listen to the same automatic alarm notifications over and over and over and over again! But they won't ever be able to get rid of the pager notification frequency. So low band it is!

What meter do you use that can register 120,000ppm? I am really curious!
