    Army Communication & Information Systems Specialists (Sig Op, Lineman and LCIS Amalgamation)

    Changing a hub, card etc is not first line. i am consistently seeing this in alot of threads on here. First line is finding out what specific piece of kit is not working, and swapping it for one that does. the tech or QM should have access to a replacment item for that setup. repairing that...

    Sweet raise for LCIS Techs

    Position based spec pay is a great idea(also has downfalls, which i think they are hoping this mes thing sorts out), I also agree that the line is getting blurred. like i said there are alot of great sig ops out there that know there stuff and should be techs. on our 3's we got trained to use to...

    Sweet raise for LCIS Techs

    the benefits are not the same. They get the same health benefits (same coverage for most positions, as each base is different for some reason) the only thing they pay for is prescriptions, and i dont think they pay the whole thing, most civi work for the military now is completed by former...

ITs happening. and the ACCISS thing, the ACCISS guys, are operators, (not trying to offend sig ops here, ) but as the Sig Op Chief said, the Sig op and Acciss trades are going to be one and the same, basic...

    Sweet raise for LCIS Techs

    I agree fully, I am probably putting one more S in ACCISS then needed, not sure this whole MES/MOZART thing has been like a ghost. We had a brief with the three wise men in regards to this. Spec Pay is going to be attempted for sig ops, and possibly lineman. I personally don't like this ACCISS...

    Sweet raise for LCIS Techs

    That is not what all techs do, dont get me wrong, a basic tech starts off with that skillset.  however, compared to civi side, techs are underpaid. How about program a cisco router switch, fault find an ehsd kit, TCI's, Data comms, Fiber, Alcatel mux's,  heavy det, light det, vpn kits, I dont...

    Soldier Qualification Course (Questions & Answers)

    Thats understandable, same badge doesnt necessarily mean same trade. The sigs branch is large, with the possibility of even breaking the trades down further themselves.  Postings weearing the jimmy can be from Alert, to Hawaii, to US CENTCOM HQ, anywhere in the world. Answer this, has your...

    civi jobs in the after life

    another deciding factor would be OSQ courses would it not? i know that two LCIS techs can have two very different jobs,  where one of them may know a great detail about a certain aspect of the trade and one may not have a clue about it? is this true, any other LCIS would be able to go deeper...
