The Central One bulletin board is a collection of informative documents ranging from central station services and procedures to technical tips. Additions and updates to the system will generally be announced on the cover sheet transmitted with Fax Back document orders and in the What's New section of our web site. We welcome both comments and contributions to the system. If you have technical or helpful information or an announcement that you would like to share with others, please contact the central station manager to see about adding it to the system.
