Does anyone have the pager tone 7 on their computer as a sound file?
-
its ok i have got it
-
you sure you got it ath? seems to me you are losing it :evil:
-
I have tone 7 on my pager and whenever a fire call occurs this tone informs me that theres a fire call which needs to be responded to quickly
Needless to say that i move really quickly when the pager sounds :-D
-
remember always to read it, because i once evidently had tone7 as my message tone, and i ran all the way to the station leaving my dinner to get cold, and when i was there i read it and then i had a bad dinner :-D

I Read It For Key Words, Eg House Fire, MVA, Grass Fire. That Way I Know Its A Job And What I Am Going To So That I Can Open The Correct Roller Door For The Job.

haha its funny because i know who it is! i love being in the know, booyah! :-D :lol:

Nothing worse than getting dressed for a job and some idiot comes thundering through the back door and says "so what job is it" honestly it takes 5 whole seconds to read the pager.... Sorry pet hate people who don't read their pagers.

thats when you get those people to learn there lesson by sending a test response page out of the blue.
-
What makes it worse is when the Captain who will not read his pager or answer his phone.
-
I hate it when people don't read the pager, we have a member who is first to the stations most times and still does not read his pager. He allways asks what have we got, which truck. I just tell him if you don't have any idea you can't get on ( he now is starting to read the messages)
-
im with most people on here... i read the whole message. its good to know what the incident is and where it is... so ya dont come around a corner and hit it!!!!
its also good to know which other brigades or services are responding also...
the old "what have we got??" gives me the she-its also...
-
Yep....you can tell when everyone reads their pager too....at 03:00hrs when its a wheelie bin and its cold....4 out of 44 turnup if youre lucky :x
-
i live practically next door to the fire station, so i usually just leg it there during the day, and not really read my pager and if it is a test i just socialize with the people at the station testing stuff. :-D.
So in all that extra time you have (eg: living next door) you can't read your pager?
*sigh*

What happens at night? Do you drive there?
-
We had a pager problemd the other day,so I got STC to do a full group responce page boy funny how many showed up with out reading the pager.....
-
My rule for fire calls is that if i hear the pager sound during mid morning early or late arvo then it's obvious that theres an emergency which needs to responding to
My pet hate is the same as Blinky's as i see alot of people bolt into the station asking whats going on because they didnt read their pager after it went off... not to brag or nothing i usually listen to the situation before my pager sounds via the scanner either in my car or in the kitchen that way i know abit more of whats happening so when the pager does sound i know what im responding to
-
Rob you are very lucky that you don't have firecalls in the early morning or late at night, must be nice to be able to predict that and work out when you can have a big night.
Listening to the scanner doesn't really give you the jump it used to anymore, occassionally SAAS will give out an MVA a minute or two before we get the page but nine times out of then they don't bother responding us anyway so you may as well just not worry about it.
My pet hate is call pickers - we all know who they are but there is little you can do about it. Bring back the tone only pagers :lol:
-
tone only pagers.....go back to the last century.
There is nothing wrong with call picking to some extent. Im at work and shouldnt leave unless its absolute necessary, so i dont wanna go running out the door when the tone only pager goes off for a search or priority two patient lift or something relatively low priority.
the message on the pager allows me too work out whether i should leave work and help my community or help my work out and continue working.
-
I don't know about this call picking, it seems that many people do actually pick their calls, I see that work is a good excuse for call picking, as some people wont leave unless it is a job that requires BA, and they are BA, i think that is acceptable.
-
I Just Work Away From The Station. Only Time I Will Leave Work Is For Strike Team Deployment In Which The Captain Calls Us Finds Out Whos Available & If We Would Like To Go.
