Tickets Keeps Communications Up During Southern California Fires

03 September 2009

Ari Friedman is the Dispatch Coordinator of Hatzolah of Los Angeles. He
wrote to let us know that Tickets was instrumental in keeping their
operation up and running during the recent fires in Southern California.
Despite being 20+ miles away from the fires their repeater is on a
mountain top there. Yesterday the fires brought their main repeater
down. They used the "email all units" feature to advise all their units
to switch over to their backup communications system. According to Ari,
"We have close to 80 units and without Tickets it would have been harder
and a much more painful process. My organization is operating as
normal."

Words of thanks go out to Arnie and Andy and their continued good work
with Tickets.
