Instead of using Staten Island Box numbers they should assign box numbers to surrounding cities so that the box number could better identify the location of the mutual aid.

I thought that several years ago the FDNY tested digital radios and rejected them because of problems receiving the signal in basements and High Rise buildings. Why are they resurrecting a technology that they previously rejected ?
