Dear Member

In this month's eNews, the deadline to switch to narrowband has passed. Make sure you make the switch, so you don't get fined! And the FDNY is testing out the Electronic Command Board. Find out what this could mean for you and your department.

And be sure to check out the story of a woman who died after driving into a pond, all because her 911 call wasn't put into the system.
