No offense taken. I've been married twice. You can't say anything that hasn't been screamed at me before. 

Well, not true. I can't imagine my ex screaming "a talkgroup is not a frequency you ignorant toad!"

But the idea stands.

Hey Kurt --

No dig at you intended! I often hear the same kind of thing in Arlington
County. Honestly, it sometimes leaves me scratching my head as to how
the actual scenario could be confused with the phoned-in/dispatched
scenario. I exaggerated below, but I've sometimes heard calls that
approach this level of disparity.

I agree. That's why I try to emphasize initial dispatch vrs 1st unit
sizeup when reporting. 

I'm just a bit bored at the moment.

I'm often amused at the difference between the 911 call/dispatch report,
and what they actually find on scene:

Dispatch: "Respond to an overturned truck that's burst into flames and
is leaking acid, with possibly four people entrapped and one ejected"

On-scene report: "A GMC Pacer with a flat tire. Place all units in
service."
