 My name's Myles Brown, I'm a CTSO which is a communication services technical officer. As comms operations we provide support for CFA's communication services which is CFA's fleet of radios, our incident management channels, telephone services, the fire station alerts systems. We also provide support in larger incidents, so we attend and provide support and advice where it's needed. So in larger instance there's a lot of the just sort of maintenance and checking work that we do, so when trucks come back after a day out fighting fires we just run over their radios and antennas to make sure nothing's happened, like their antennas have been knocked off by a tree branch or something like that, check everything's working so they're all ready to go next time they're on shift. We also deploy transportable repeaters where they're required to give additional radio coverage or additional radio channels in some areas where it might be needed. I've always had sort of a love of maths and so and I've always done a lot of sort of hands-on building, taking things apart, putting them back together, fixing things so I thought I'd try out doing electronic engineering. I thought it would combine a bit of hands-on, a bit of maths and then from there just sort of did a few different jobs around and then sort of job for the CFA and applied for this one. Day to day the work can be really varied and I do can do a lot of travel so seeing lots of parts of Victoria and often sort of remote parts of Victoria that you would never go to if you were just traveling through or being a tourist and you meet lots of different people you know the career firefighters, volunteers, just members of the community, lots of people you interact with on a day-to-day. The role that I play and that my team play is important but it's just another piece in the sort of jigsaw that everyone plays a role within the CFA and we all sort of have the same aims to support the community where we can. My advice would be just to do something and do it well but not worry too much about choosing the right thing to start with. Try a lot of different things and don't be afraid to change if you decide that yeah it's not quite right for you.
