What I’m saying is the tapes at 911 run continuously for 24-7. They record every single thing that comes over the air to include everything that isn’t said. Dead air. They don’t only record when something is said. Maybe Fox was cutting out the dead air. That’s all I’m saying. As a supervisor in my PD there were times I requested tapes from 911 of an incident. The incident may have happened over a period of an hour or two. I got all of it including all the dead air when nothing was said. I sat there and listened to all of it. I would have one of the secretaries transcribe the tape for me.
I don't understand. Are you saying your department records dead air, 24/7 when transmissions are not taking place? If so, why would they do that when it's easy to set up voice activated recordings?
