First InterComm Vehicle Communications Assemblies, devices about the size of a shoebox that are mounted inside first responder vehicles that link all vehicles at an incident scene, were installed in 10 Grady County emergency response vehicles.
These units allow first responders to "communicate across different VHF, UHF and 800MHz frequencies using existing equipment and hand-held radios during major disasters when radio towers may be compromised."
