Hi all,
Johnothan here, new to RR (forums, not database)!! Been monitoring Lee County for a few years now and just learned about these forums. I recently read a forum about how the press/news media get radios (usually purchased) from departments, in this case LCSO, FMPD, CCPD, LCPA/APD, etc.
Legally speaking, there is no definitive criteria or qualification needed to be a member of news/media or a journalist. I'm not sure how much it would cost, but I'm considering possibly reaching out to PIO in search of an approved Rx-only radio for news media.
Honest replies only - what should I expect, (departmentally) response-wise and price-wise? Who should I contact and what would the process look like? Considering LCPS manages the entire TRS (from my understanding), would one radio cover everything or would I need to reach out to each individual department for a radio?
I know this may seem a little bit extreme, but I am simply exploring my options. Thanks!
