Question

[BryanTheRed]

Prior to the 800 mhz system were Boston Fire and Police on UHF?

 

[Rickey334]

In fact, they still are.

Boston Police and Fire are both on UHF, along with the BEMS (Boston Emergency Medical Service). The 800mhz trunk is used by the city (janitors, DPW, parking et al.) and some municipal departments like the housing police. The Police, Fire, and BEMS have talk groups on the system, but they are rarely used.

Thanks guys I guess I missed that in the Database.......

Do you guys think you could submit that info to the Database? I noticed just now it isnt there just the 800 systems ad one conventional channel.
