Would like to take a moment and invite all of our scanners again to the chat room that we maintain to discuss many of the emergencies that we hear each day.
The chat room is incredibly helpful in coordinating information and is a useful sounding board to what we are hearing.
It also allows us to divide the work load in times of crisis.
Please take a moment and download the java software and install it on to your computer.
Here is a link for a free download.
