Tucker McCumber Silent Key KD9DHB

 

Tucker Marcel McCumber, 32, passed away on October 15, 2023, after a two-year battle with cancer. Tucker was born in Spooner, Wisconsin, on January 18, 1991, to Bruce and Gayle McCumber. From day one, his energy and determination was apparent, and he tackled every obstacle in life head-on. He discovered computers at age five, and technology became his life. After graduating from high school in 2009, Tucker obtained an Associate Degree in Information Technology (IT) from Northwoods Technical College in Rice Lake, Wisconsin.

As soon as Tucker turned 18, he joined the Shell Lake Fire Department and found his true passion in life, ending his career with the rank of Captain. After working in the IT field for several years, Tucker became a 911 dispatcher for the St. Croix Tribal Police and then for Barron County. Tucker then accepted a position at Washburn County, where he served as both a 911 dispatcher and a Radio Systems Communications Manager, upgrading and maintaining the county-wide emergency radio system. In addition to this and the fire department, he volunteered as an EMS First Responder and provided in-home computer work for people who needed it. His family is incredibly proud of the man he was. Even at the end, he faced everything with integrity and gratitude, putting other people¡¯s needs before his own and always thanking the nurses every time they attended to him.

Tucker was preceded in death by his father, Bruce McCumber; grandfather, Norman Lester; and grandparents, Marcel and Doris McCumber.

He is survived by his mother, Gayle McCumber; brother, Corbin (Nikki) McCumber; sister, Danika (Kumar) McCumber; nephews, Kohen and Cooper; niece, Nevaeh; grandmother, Beverly ¡°Darn¡± Lester; and aunts, uncles, cousins, and his soulmate Kyley Williams.

He will be deeply missed by his faithful companions, his dog, Cali and his cat, Mr. Kitty (AKA Worm), who kept him company through countless hours of chemotherapy on the couch.

A memorial service will be held at the Spooner Elementary School on Saturday, October 28, 2023, at 11:00 AM. A visitation will be held at the school from 9:00 AM until the time of the service.?

In lieu of flowers, contributions in Tucker¡¯s memory may be made to support the Shell Lake Fire Department or to other volunteer fire departments.

FCC Nationwide Emergency Test

 

FCC to Conduct Nationwide Emergency Alert Test October 4

Contact:?dmawempio@...
To view this content online, please use the following link:?

The Federal Emergency Management Agency, in coordination with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) will conduct a nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System (EAS) and the Wireless Emergency Alert (WEA) at approximately Oct. 4 at approximately 1:20 p.m. CST.

Federal rules require all EAS participants to participate in testing. This includes radio and television broadcasters, cable systems, satellite radio and television providers and wireline video providers. FEMA will send a national test message to participating stations. The test will verify the delivery and broadcast of the message, assess the operational readiness to distribute the message, and determine any improvements that are needed.

The WEA portion of the test will be disseminated by wireless providers that have chosen to participate in WEA. Cell towers will broadcast the test message for 30 minutes. Members of the public will be able to receive the message if their phone is WEA-capable, switched on and within range of an active cell tower, and their wireless carrier participates in WEA. There are no charges for the delivery of WEA messages and the alerts resemble a text message.

This is the third national WEA test. Unlike the previous test, which was delivered to users who opted-in to receive test messages, this year¡¯s test message will be sent to all compatible cellular phones that are in range of cellular service. The message will be delivered using a unique tone and vibration. It will read: ¡°THIS IS A TEST of the National Wireless Emergency Alert System. No action is needed.¡±

Following the tests, FEMA is planning to conduct a targeted survey in conjunction with the nationwide WEA test. The survey participants have been notified and will provide their feedback on the test to help FEMA capture information about the geographic reach of the WEA alert message. Results of the survey will help FEMA and other WEA stakeholders ¡ª the FCC, Wisconsin Emergency Management, and public safety officials ¡ª enhance and expand WEA even further.
