Leaving Mississippi

[matthewtomek]

Well, I have accepted a position with the Memphis Fire Department Communications Division. I start June 10, 2004. I will be moving to Memhis at the end of May. Still plan on being involved in Mississippi Communications.

Milf, looking forward to your live dispatch. If it works out right, I might put Memphis' vocal alarm channel on the net. No one that I know of has done it yet, so that may be my new project. The main dispatch talkgroup is on-line, but not the vocal alarm frequency.

I hope everyone keeps the hobby alive and if I am ever needed, don't hesitate to drop me a line.

Congrats on the new job! If you happen to get ahold to a programmed radio for the PD system and can get it on the air LOL please do so..

Will let you know first when I go online.. hopefully that will be first tests late June.

Congratulations! You will have to tell us about the MFD Comm Center and how their communications system works.

Yeah, congratulations Matthew! You can pin down NorthWest Mississippi and I'll take NorthEast Mississippi from here in Florence, AL.

Want a Florence - Memphis connection? Both W.C. Handy and Sun Records' Sam Phillips were born and raised in Florence and later moved to Memphis where they became famous.

:shock: I have a funny feeling that he will be back in the delta in a few years because that is where his "ROOTS" are. :shock:

Hmm flat flat flat, mosquitoes like flying blood banks....... Well all of us in MS come back at one point or another. BTW how are you guys in the Delta handling all this rain? Yazoo River and the others holding it good?
