Is that what i was hearing some chatter on Lincoln county Sherriff about last night? Heard two units call out that they were headed to Marennette County emergent, and that they were in "radio slience" on the local channel up that way. Am i right, or is this something else entirely? Just curious. N9NRA

Yep, Lincoln County deputies assisted the Marinette County Sheriff.

Just outta curiousity, is this "radio slience" thing something that happens often? I`ve heard of "closing" a channel (it happens a lot on PD channels, and we do it from time to time on our Skywarn freqs too). I find that rather intresting. Thanx. N9NRA

As for radio silence for this incident there was none. Most of the opertions took place on wispern. Radio communication was a mess. There was no radio interpole between WI agencies and MI agncies. After having a meeting with Dickinson cnty sheriff; they have developed a SOP for this by interconnecting there 800 system to their old VHF freq.

Okay, then what they meant was that they had just "closed" the channels up there to routine traffic. Given what ya said though, i bet it was a REALLY BIG mess...makes me wish i was up there to hear it (just a tad). N9NRA
