Can't prove it: MotoTrbo

I believe, but can't prove, that Motorola will be coming out with multi-band MotoTrbo radios for the US market at some time in the near future.

Re: Southern California Breaking Incidents - Raw News Videos - Photos - Links

Since you added Northern California at the bottom, another fire link is Firedispatch.com. This was started by an entrepreneur who works on public safety radio systems and other tools. This was one of the first tools for web based audio. Audio for some agencies came from the Central Electronics Bank ...

System IDs

I see MRA (NxDn) and Fisher (Connect Plus) system IDs listed as decimal on this system. P25 systems are listed as hexadecimal (67C). Is there a reason for using these mixed formats? I have almost the same problem using hex IDs for all system IDs except outside of code plugs listing both 1406(57E).

Re: Mobile Relay Associates (MRA) NEXEDGE48 System R31 - Trunked System Sites in San Diego County

I’ve seen users on MRA roam on Rebel. • My records show some duplicated site numbers using R31. I’m not sure how that’s possible. (?) • Onyx Peak appears to use a Public Safety Pool fr...

Re: San Diego City switch ambulance providers for first time since 1997 to Falck Ambulance Company on November 27, 2021

Observation: this seems to be a problem everywhere service is provided by for-profit ambulance contractors. When you have for-profit companies in the food chain, they make money by cutting staff or cutting other costs. They may be very serious about performance but goal of the organization is to mak...

Re: Senator Becker re-introduces Law Enforcement Radio Encryption SENATE BILL (SB 719) - Latest Updates

Since everything was in the clear until recently, if this passes, law enforcement will not be harmed in any way. Tactical operations will still be encrypted. Palo Alto voluntarily dropped encryption on dispatch traffic. Here’s what I believe happened with Palo Alto Police based mostly on newspaper r...

NTIA VHF assignments

I only look at fire channels but it has been publicly disclosed NTIA assignments have been changed over the last two years. All the systems I am aware of have been changed to low frequency is the mobile and control station side. All repeaters transmit on the high side of a pair. It seems to be a new...
