Good evening.
I recently became interested in what the state troopers operate for a radio system in such a large vast variety of country throughout the state. Living in northern Minnesota, we have our own challenges of remote access to areas, but nothing like Alaska. From what I can see the trunk radio system covers a good portion of the mainland interior part of the state and the SE part of the state.
What I am most interested in is the remote detached troopers that are working out in communities like Bethel or Nome, Barrow, etc. or even further out in remote villages, what are they using for two way communication or if any at all. I’m wondering if there is just a point with troopers where they don’t have communications that far out, or they have simplex or some sort of analog system.
