There was another thread here that said Troop C's system was upgrading their microwave backbone and "throwing the switch" last night. Maybe that had something to do with it??
i heard nothing for like a half hour...thought it was my equipment, so i turned on my handheld and also heard nothing. around 11pm i heard a roll call with all of the newark cars and then troopb dispatchers letting their troopers know they were on backup channels.
