Message-ID: <20220913145418.GA307844@telecomdigest.us> Date: Tue, 13 Sep 2022 14:54:18 +0000 From: Bill Horne <malQRMassimilation@gmail.com> Subject: LA: East Baton Rouge 911 system dropping calls again; there are thousands of places to look By James Wilkins East Baton Rouge Parish's 911 system suffered communications problems for a third consecutive day Monday, and the head of the agency overseeing it said there are thousands of places where the network could be out of sync. Crews from AT&T were working to nail down the cause, the city-parish said, and anyone who loses their connection on an emergency call should try 911 again right away. The caller's location is logging properly, but sometimes they may have additional critical information. https://tinyurl.com/y8wzfmwz<

AT&T is continuing to troubleshoot, but has not yet isolated the problem, the center said. https://tinyurl.com/4r488nt5
