    I used to work as an rmergency medical technician. I thought it was fascinating that pulling fire alarms in public buildings like schools automatically called the fire department, police, and emergency medical services.

    That's one hell of an old VHF repeater system in the background they don't make them like that anymore the way they used to nice and solid state

    The difference between Chicago's dispatch operations in 1988 is practically no different than the FDNY's dispatch operation circa 1988, including the comings and goings of the personnel! Same stuff, just a different place, I guess....

      Except the bells were long gone in NYC by 1988.

      Emergency communication center was actually located at the Los Angeles County Fire Department Headquarters and the actual dispatcher was the late Sam Lanier, protecting the citizens of Los Angeles County.

    I saw a baseball game going on on one of the tv screens. I hope no pesky blazes came in while the game was on, wouldn't want to interrupt their attention.
