From their latest FCC filing:
"A first license was granted to the City of Indio and assigned to ERICA WQIP425 with three
frequency pairs. As more coordination was done and Letters of Concurrence obtained, it was
possible to clear one more frequency which was granted under the WQKL300 STA. It was not
possible to add this channel to the main license due to the 800 MHz border area license freeze.
We have now coordinated two more channels which we desire to add to the instant STA.
This will give us enough frequencies to begin testing the new ERICA P-25 digital trunked system
which is now installed. This filing for modification has attachments of the required Letters of Concurrence
and the APCO Frequency Advisors approval for the coordination of these channels. The channels
are:
Frequency LOCs received (attached)
855.2125 MHz Desert Hot Springs, Orange County, San Bernardino County
859.4875 Palm Springs, Orange County Transit Authority
The new ERICA system will be an 11-channel digital system which will initially serve the five member
cities of Beaumont, Cathedral City, Desert Hot Springs, Indio, and Palm Springs. It will
initially serve 1400 subscriber radios giving total interoperability amongst the cities. Capacity has
been planned to also serve other nearby municipalities."
