Me Dispatching on Pierce County Sheriff East Dispatch

[dispatcher50100]

@PierceScan, this is very cool.

I am also a big fan of the police scanner.

I'd love to see if our communications supervisor would let me talk on the radio for a bit one day.

Also, not making fun of you or anything, I'd never do that to anyone, however, I also listen to our local railroad frequency. I have to say, you sound very simmilar to train dispatcher KML.

Have you ever tried out for a train dispatching job at the UP Hariman dispatch center?

I'm guessing the time between these transmissions is speed up, cause I don't know any town or city that has that much radio traffic...lol.

[PierceScan]

my recorder only records when the button is pressed. the radio traffic on this channel is moderate..

[Seattlekid8]

O, thanks... :)

some people should not comment on the things they do not know.. Mdc means exactly what the man says!! Mobile data computer. I would love to dispatch for my area (pierce county sheriff)

Great job!!!

[bing043]

What are the units saying at the end of their transmission, MDC or NDC or similar? And what does that mean? Excuse my ignorance.

[PierceScan]

Thanks for the question. We are saying MDC which stands for Mobile Data Computer. It's basically saying that the details ore on the computer on the car and it also states that the unit has a mdc

[bing043]
