Wondering if there is any new news on Montgomery county new high band fire radio system.
I'm having a hard time believing they will be getting TRBO radios for a new system......
Five years ago, the Motorola dealership in this area (not Wells or Albany Comm) was trying to push us into buying TRBO radios as the way of the future. Since Fulton County doesn't have the money to replace an all analog system and the fact that the state Interoperability grants require P25 capability, buying TRBO seemed more than a bit fruitless then and even more so now.True, but a purchasing agent who buys TRBO radios on state bid for an analog system should be fired.
They now sit in a trailer where they will be disposed of by drilling holes in them 10-20 years from now. Just like the 100 Aerotron 110 watt base stations.
You answered your own question in post #14. If you are hearing no more traffic on the low band frequencies, and you are hearing everything on the high band frequencies, then it's pretty obvious that they've made the jump.My question I have been trying to get answered is, HAS THE COUNTY MADE THE SWITCH FROM LOW BAND TO HIGH BAND. Is it so hard to get some kind of answer?. sigh
Thank you anyone
