Where’s 242?

This was the same barge from Manhattan that was pulled out of the building earlier in the day. This usually occurs daily as it transports all of Manhattan's paper recycling to Pratt Industries on SI for processing. Safe to say there wasn't much to process this day.

multiple browsers... no bueno

Where's 125 today?

Fairly new Mitsubishi hybrid hooked up to it at the time, also damaged another city car next to it. A number of these things across the city have not been working properly. $60,000 each.

We were advised of the same issues at DSNY. Press the button on the radio and get that low “boop” instead of the higher pitched “boop”

I still find it curious how SI still has the same three BC’s going back to the 1930’s even as we all know the population has increased ten-fold. Need a BC at 168 or at EMS Station 22 and rebalance with the other three. The 23 hardly ever makes it in to anything in 151,164,168’s area.

The mixer’s been off on every report

He ordered the same yesterday. 1 BC and 4 trucks. Probably just an SOP but maybe not an automatic one

The engineer there may be looking for a new job soon…. Two days in a row.

Interesting how very few relocators got in. Like a reverse of the trend from the last couple years of sending relocators in and have four or five sections of the first alarm companies.

Got mine today.. looking forward to checking it out

IIRC, CW - 523 Man-524 BK - 525 then KYE994 QN - 526 SI - 527 BX - KED962 From my late 80’s beginnings ….

Which then became KYE994

Not sounding good on the airwaves tonight. Lots of buzzing, distorted transmissions. Brooklyn seems to have the least issues. Everyone else, forget it. This is when I miss the old 154 VHF channels.
