Heard CHP (115) units on RCS Temecula Disp 1,
Responding to a 10851, SB I 15 at the lower 79,
Already making use of those RCS radios.
When CHP East goes back to gold?
Maybe the (108) units will get to keep there
Hand-held radios for interoperability. Also heard some
Traffic on Delegation protection 1 units talking about the
Governor. Why not the CHP blue?
Maybe the (87) units have RCS radios?
I know that the answer lies in the future minuets!

Interesting to see the 115 units on the RCS. I'd like to know how that is going to work when they are north of Temecula.

It's doable on trunked systems because San Diego PD does it - wonder why other agencies who HAD emergency tones on VHF/UHF haven't pushed for them on their trunked system?

The problem with using DTMF for an emergency keep-the-air-clear alert is that IMBE doesn't pass DTMF tones very well. They come out terrible in quality. IMBE was designed around the human voice. Even generic single tones sound a bit garbled, but still better than DTMF.
