None have been sent yet. Right now the dispatch criteria is "major incidents only". Guess nobody has heard anything major worth dispatching.

In a way this is a good thing as I would imagine people might get irritated if they are constantly receiving pages of relatively minor/routine stuff.

hehe we just need a thread with a sticky, 600+ views and 50 reply in 6 days! :P

Major shooting incident at Fort Hood Texas. does that count ??

I vote no, but was curious on why the SPD shooting didn't make it.

That one is easy. Nobody with alert-sending capability was listening to that particular SPD talkgroup at the time the shooting occurred.

Looks like we better get an alert from the Texas area :!:

ahh so another Q is there a proper way to inform the dispatchers if there is traffic, happen to flip to it about 5 min after the incident broke wasn't near a computer to post about it but I do have a Blackberry where I could email ...is it practical to have a email for the dispatchers?

AKA is there a way to inform the disp. if they don't happen to be at the same bat channel and bat time as the post worthy incident?

do we have a bat phone?

I was listening to PSOPS-S1 when this shooting was unfolding (see other thread), and sent a page out after I heard "Shots Fired" - It appears to come over my phone ok (Verizon). Any one else who's subscribed to Western WA get that page, and see any problem on their providers?
