Dispatch to Engine 7. 107, go ahead. The tower played a call back from UAlbany, and they said that no one's there at 436 Washington Avenue. We're here with the maintenance. We went in through the back entrance, so I'm in touch with maintenance now. You can make this a signal 10. Seems to be a malfunction. We're unable to reset at this time. Maintenance is going to take care of the reset. You can put Engine 7 back in service. Received, 848.

Dispatch, Engine 7. 7's on, can you repeat that? They're saying it's 436 Washington Avenue. It says Richardson Hall, but it also says Draper Hall. 833. Okay, received. We're going to make our way down to 436. It's on Washington, not Western, though. 436 Washington, received. 836.
