We lost a great man today. Calvin Bishop was a charter member of Local 1873. Even during retirement he would speak in support of the organization, sharing on the importance and benefits of a strong local. God Speed Brother.

From FFD Chief Dove:
I share sad news this morning, was just informed that retired Battalion Chief Calvin Bishop passed this morning. Calvin was our Coordinator here at FTCC Fire Training after his retirement at FFD. Calvin was a major player in the success of the FFD and loved this organization like no other. He has had some medical struggles in the last few years and is now at peace. We will share arrangements as they’re decided.

Please, please, please listen!!

To my emergency service colleagues: If you are not deployed and are on NC VIPER just listening to statewide talkgroups, you are not part of the solution. You are part of the problem. TURN IT OFF!

You are HURTING your brother and sister first responders.

If your radio is turned on, affiliated with a site, and you have a statewide Talkgroup selected, the system will try to route audio paths to your local VIPER site. If all the audio paths at your local site are committed to WNC traffic, someone in your local area WILL get a busy signal. Vice versa, a radio for a deployed resource in WNC may get a busy signal because your local site is tied up.
