k3sam notes
This is a confirmed 911 tower location. During inspection I found that 911
is
relying on the Verizon Telephone Company to relay tower communications as
evidence of T1 or possibly T3 service drops are seen. I also found that
there is
only one electrical power transformer on the pole right outside of the building,
911 might consider calling Allegheny Power and have them install another one
for backup in case this one gets hit by a lightning strike.
(I know this site has complete backup - generators installed but
two service entrances are better.)
After seeing the site, I believe that the last 911 system CRASH was due
to a
T1 or T3 Line being down or possibly an equipment failure after the lightning
strike, or both. The CRASH affected the area in the western half of
Westmoreland County, Pa.
Email your photos in .JPG format and I will post them.
At this time I would like to report to you that only GMan,
TopGun from D5 PD and Myself own digital cameras,
or at least it would appear that way. Well, at least the film is cheap !
Please include Fire Station, Police, or EMS company name along with your name
for my records only.
Only photos of antennas and buildings, no human beings allowed. Other
interesting photos also considered including vehicle communication
installations.
Use the email address news@k3sam.com or they
will be rejected.
Thanks !
