Based on a number of factors (radio interoperability, low band, high band, policy, etc.) you may be parroting or repeating some or all radio traffic to your field units. Or maybe you have digital voice transmissions, or maybe it’s based on the dispatcher’s preference. Just in our crew, you’ll hear difference answers, justifications, for repeating or not. We’d love to hear what your policy or procedure is for your agency – send us an email or comment on our social media. wespeakdispatch@gmail.com THANK YOU FOR LISTENING OR WATCHING!
