While surfing the Web, I came across this RFP to upgrade the Pugent Sound Emergency Radio Network. This makes for some interesting reading to say the least. More information is available at the King County Web Site.

Don't engage "Lisa" please. He/she is just using that alias this week. He/she has a number of other ones that they've posted under, yet no one seems to care.

They're not hard to find... The key is Findlay, Ohio.

Harris, EF Johnson, General Dynamics, and Motorola... Maybe Kenwood/Zetron...

Is Seattle going digital?

I remember seeing something that the Pierce County Transit system was going to be used for emergency services in the far south sound. It makes mention of being expanded to Seattle "to replace old equipment," so we'll see.

Looks like it's a P25 Phase 2, but since the 396XT can't do Phase 2, I really can't say anything.

Update on the South Sound 9-1-1 network. It's Phase 1 (not Phase 2 as previously thought). I can (barely) get a control signal on 774.70625.

This is why I submitted a recent change to the database. :)

You are probably just in a bad spot. I'm submitting another update for the frequencies and sites.

Here's the current list:

Code:
ACTIVE SYSTEMS:
---------------

1-01	1E7	774.68125 	WQRK643 (Tacoma) Central Pierce
1-02	1E7	774.48125	WQPM841	(Orting) SE Pierce
1-03	1E7	773.73125	WQPM835	(Mineral) South Pierce (Mt Rainier)
1-04	1E7	774.70625	WQRL631	(West Seattle) South King County
1-05	1E7	773.48125	WQPM839	(Buckley) East Pierce



Site 104 (West Seattle)
------

774.70625 	control

774.20625	alternate
773.20625	alternate + data

769.80625	voice + data
773.70625	voice + data


770.30625	identifier (cw) CHANGEME
769.30625	identifier


PS. Please don't mix threads. These two systems are not related. (They may be linked in the future but they're different systems.)

774.70625 is West Seattle which I am barely getting, and I imagine that they'll replace them county by county and integrate it into the radio network. Like what they did in Kansas City.

Oh please cite your sources about how it will be done locally.
