On most radio systems a call from the field starts like this:
"Engine 123 to Central." and the Dispatcher answers that call.
But on the FDNY system it often seems that I don't hear the field unit initiate the conversation. is it because of MDT or some other means the dispatcher knows the field unit is calling or do I just not hear the first part of the conversation because of the mixer or some other feature of the system?
