Sounds like another county is going with automated dispatching. I'm currently hearing Catawba County Fire/Rescue/EMS dispatch with a human voice on the normal dispatch TG, with testing on Catawba County TAC 6. Sounds great!

Do we think that the new automated dispatch will eventually use the normal dispatch TG?
Probably after they complete all the testing. Iredell tested theirs for about 6 months on a test channel before they went live. There is a lot of work on the back end to get one of these system set up

Forsyth and Davidson Counties have been testing automated dispatch as well. Seems to be the trend around here.
Yes, the dispatchers will still radio the units to give additional info. It's just there mainly so they can get the page out while they are on the phone or gathering information. It reduces workload on the dispatcher and gets the call out quicker.
