Some groups don't trust the SOC guys to do the response paging and have decided that all response messages must come from MFS.
What a load of crap! Look back a little while and you will see that the groups who use MFS, have done so now for many years.
It is these same Groups who many, many years ago used a commercial paging service to respond their brigades which MFS activated, as MFS had the software on their computers to zone areas, allocate appliances to streets etc, etc, etc that CFS now has! It was these groups who set up the systems the rest of us now take for granted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
All these groups have done is continue what they started years ago, before GRN and before we all adopted what they were doing as standard.
Maybe some 'wannabes' on this forum should check before they write ill informed or airy fair posts - sure have an opinion, but before making an accusation check your facts and do your research!
