Got the news chopper in the neighborhood, but I can't seem a smoke loom up from the library so it can't be real bad.
Internet scanner listening for the first time!
They knocked it down at about 3:15 p.m. so the crews made fast (as usual) work of this one.
The Internet listening is okay- but they can't lock on/broadcast multiple channels like we can here.
Careful there TO those things can become addicting.
41 plus years later I still listen in.
Oh, Superdave, I am already addicted--since my volly days in PA and VT in the 1970s and 1980s.
