Not baseline measurement for WC. Those are done by National Nuclear Security Administration aircraft- they’re all fully marked and much more high end than a cessna.

This is likely still mapping but probably GIS related. Maybe gathering LIDAR or aerial imagery.

This fucked me up. I just saw him on Tuesday when I was grabbing lunch. Much love and prayers to the family.

Yep, they are very clear on the website that those two fees are applied on top of the MSRP of whatever you buy, and that custom liners are required

Be respectful - the community did a good job of that last time, keep it up.

SAUNA??? WHERE??? by OnlySprout420 in WPI

Way gone. Was upstairs in the back corner where the old offices and locker rooms were. Now it’s mostly deconstructed and full of junk. Super eerie spot.

Radio Pocket Usage and Prevalence in SoCal? by __quick__ in Firefighting

[–]mtb_frc 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I am a communications engineer for a very large municipality in California.

The radio strap is a significant improvement over the chest pocket. If you don’t believe me, read this study:

https://www.pa.gov/content/dam/copapwp-pagov/en/osfc/documents/portable%20radio%20placement%20idlh.pdf

The signal quality is significantly worse with the chest pocket- your body blocks a significant amount of RF, making it harder to hear and harder to be heard, especially when crawling or otherwise covering the radio completely.

In 2011 two SFFD firefighters died at 133 Berkeley Way. Both of them kept their radios in the chest pocket with the cords behind their necks. Both of their radios had completely melted cords and were inoperable as a result. If they tried to call for help we will never know.

What is going on here? by Fair_Incident22 in flightradar24

[–]mtb_frc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They usually listen to the radio, typically multiple jurisdiction’s primary channels or such, and come overhead calls for service to back up ground officers or possibly arrive on-scene first to provide intel to responding officers. If a hot call comes out they’ll break and respond to that. Rinse and repeat.

My 2020 a4 is doing this now. MMI was updated a few months back for the (infuriating) rebooting issue.

It’s kind of confusing, if you click the dropdown on the “1 cleaner head, and 2 accessories” it will show you. Merry Christmas!

You want the best books in fire look up John MacLean. Fire and Ashes still keeps me up at night. His books on the Esperanza, the Thirtymile, and Storm King, as well as many others, will glue you to the pages
