Hi all, being your newly appointed captain, I have taken the liberty of creating a post to assist you with appropriate radio etiquite/manner to help with your online gaming experience.

Please see below for a brief overview of how you should communicate in all multiplayer games of Squad 55 matches.

Responding: You should advise all players that your acknowledge the incident in your response area with a turnout/response message. eg: "South responding Engine 1, Ladder 1, Battalion 1 to reported structure fire"

On Scene: You should then advise all player that you have arrived on scene and supply a very brief 'Size-Up' of the incident. It would also help if you establish a 'Control Point' to relay any messages through to all other players. eg: "South appliances on scene, smoke & flame showing, fire not yet under control. Now known as South Command"

Messages: These can be brief or detailed message to all other players, including any requirements for additional units or support. eg: "South Command to EMS Supervisor, requesting 1 ambulance for paitent transport" eg: "South Command to PD, 2 units required for traffic control" eg: "South Command requesting mutual aid from West/East/North Fire, respond 2 Engines for asset protection"

Incident Status: You should always provide an incident status as soon as practical. eg: "South Command to all units, structure fire under control" eg: "South Command to West FIre, you may pack-up and return when ready"

Availability: It is always a good idea to advise all other players when your units become available again after an incident in case a new incident breaks outs and you can provide support/response. eg: "South Command to all units, structure fire stop, all units available and returning to service

These radio procedures can be used by ALL duties (Fire, EMS, PD & Tech).

I hope this has provided some insight into basic radio etiquite to you all and I hope to hear it being used during gameplay.

Thanks for taking the time to read it and happy gaming to you all.
