Drug cartels have better communications than CBP's 'advanced' radio network - Nextgov
My response is published below the article.
I'm all for CBP/DHS spending more money to secure my border against the hordes of invading cockroaches creeping across it, but I want that $$ to be allocated and spent wisely. Properly programming the existing radios, and ensuring that agents understand what channels they have & how to use them (for example, talk-around/simplex, 166.4625MHz & 155.475MHz) is a no/low-cost solution to *some* of the issues Rocafort seems to be whining about and saying that more $$$ is needed to fix.
