LINCOM?
Last night a call came to you if you have a hardline telephone number in Newport.... It spoke about a community wide alert for a senior citizen that wandered off from home and was feared lost. You were asked to keep a watchful eye out and to notify police if you thought you saw the lady in question. The call was prefaced by saying it was from Lincom....
Lincom? What is that? Well, that acronym stands for Lincoln County Communications (LINCOM). This is the agency that radio dispatches and handles calls for all of our emergency responders in this community (i.e., 911) Why did they call you?
The city has been installing a reverse 911 telephone system and have been talking about it for sometime... They can put out a call to every phone in Newport in just minutes and make an announcement of critical importance. I beleive this was the first use of the system that I know of.
This is a cool use of communications technology that will benefit our entire community.
As an aside, We would like to point out to you that this was the type of system we spoke about buying for our LVH community to report community outages such as last weeks water outtage. This reverse 911 system, of course, is a more important system...
In the future, when they call listen and do what they tell you... If you don't have what they need just be aware of the announcement. This is a critical new tool ... Announcements of a tsunami. dangerous storm conditons, all manner of uses come to mind.
