still alarm means that the bells are still (not ringing) context - in the beginning - people would run thru the streets yelling 'fire" - then there were watchmen ringing bells or blowing whistles or yelling - then there were fire boxes - and the fire boxes were connected to the bells in the fire stations - so nay call when the bells were ring was a bell alarm or a box alarm - any calls when the bells were not ringing was a 'still alarm' a still alarm might happen when someone ran into the firehouse yelling fire without pulling a fire box - therefore the bells would not ring in the fire station a still alarm might happen when a telephone call was received reporting a fire and no street boxes were pulled the meaning can be different from city to city I suppose and the meaning can depend if you are tal;king about the alarm being received by the FD or being transmitted by the FD - ie - the message going into the fire dispatch center or the message coming out of the dispatch center clear as mud - right? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "massfire" group.
