I do not know if this has been covered in a previous thread but I heard from Motorola rep last month that Motorola will be submitting the radio plans to the City & County of SF for a 700mhz system. It will include trunking (smart net II?) and APCO25 digital and some analog. Plans are for a fireground channel for PD & Fire to use together for scene security. Fire will keep a fire specific channel for working fires. Also a travel type channel (154.????) when on mutual aid. Changes to MDC system also (Unknown type of changes) Sgts & up could get a yellow housing XTS 3 or 5k to identify radios that have extra freqs programmed into them, (Poss a connection to Coast Guard ch21? and another Fed type interagency coordinatrion freq.) All these are just plans at this time and are have been submitted for review. Rep also told me that 2 other radio manufactures ahve submitted similar proposals. He said it will be similar to what NYC has coming up in their system. I don't know anything about NYC if anyone has some info? I also do not know when the hearings are for this system upgrade or if hearings are open to the public.
