[Dispatch] Alert West tower down ***

[Patterson, Brian]

AFD Dispatch is having trouble with our consoles and the West Alert group. We need all units to monitor radios until further notice. If you have Locution you should be good (at the Moment), BUT when CAD goes down tonight at midnight Locution will also be down. All stations affected have been notified. I will update as a gain info...

The following was a message that was supposed to go out this evening


*** Tonight at midnight CTECC will begin the upgrade into a new version of CAD.  AT 2200hrs we will announce that all MDC's need to be powered-down and closed. MDC's should stay powered off until told by Dispatch to turn them back on. All status should be by radio and you should have pen and paper, along with map books ready.  After 2200 all Box alarms and greater, will get a City-wide tone, announcing location and units assigned. *****
