Anyone know if port authority police went back to their conventional channels or switched from EDACS to P25? Saw a port authority officer carrying a Motorola APX at JFK the other day.
Being it was being carried at JFK it is possible it was used as a NYPD/FDNY/EMS inter-ops radio I still hear PA loud and clear on there EDACS system just because EDACS is end of life does not mean it can not be used and a system that works as well as there's I won't see it
Changed anytime soon if you look at cost wise it is crazy they will need to out fit a small army with new equipment from officers all the way down to the maintenance guy.
From what I heard the company told PANYNJ that if one of their radio's breaks to just throw it away because they refuse to repair/service old EDACS radio's. They are pushing P25 and it looks like finally they might be switching over.

Where did you hear that?
PAPD is still load and clear on EDACS. They have NOT migrated to a P25 trunked system as of yet with plans to do so in the future.
