That being said...I haven't had a land line for 10+ years.

E911 in NH has the ability to locate a call from a cell phone to within 100 feet of a phone providing the phone is on.

There is a wealth of information here regarding 911. If you have love ones with a disability or mobility issues, please have them fill out an ALI form. This program is unique to NH.
