When I worked as a Firefighter/Paramedic I would always chat up the radio technicians when they came to the station to check our radio equipment. I remember looking in the room and noticed that they were old units and were on 24/7 and 365 days a year for dispatches over the fire station radio communications system. They seemed to live a long life?
