Ok, next question is: what vendors are considered reliable?

You need to do some local research and actual human contact instead of sitting on your chair in front of the computer. Talk to other schools, see what dealer they use, what they were sold, and their opinion. You also want to talk with the local PD and 911 center to see if they have anything they want schools to do.Ok, next question is: what vendors are considered reliable?
CHIRP??? No...that's for CCRs and ham radios. CPS for Motorola is now free, so you don't have to worry about that cost.Thanks! From what I see, I’ll need to get the Motorola software, since it doesn’t look like CHIRP supports it. Does the Motorola software have any hidden cost? Their site isn’t clear.
Why do you think FDs and PDs spend so much on their comm equip?
The OP never said the radios were used for security.School security shound not be HOBBY RADIOS. It may be fine for your at home toy but not school security. You run into the risk if something goes south you are libel.
But the general public (which includes people that want to cause harm) have no business listening to the school operations or how planned events are to be secured.
Uh, no.If it's a public school, people don't have any less business listening to it than any other public service (fire/ems/police/public works). I don't know what kind of "security" measures you think schools implement at events, or what listening to it can really do.
.22 Mag will suffice for those on a tight budget, just keep the target at 100 yds. max.For a while I've been running a 100% lifetime guarantee Baofeng repair program. It starts with collecting them all up, and visiting the nearest long-distance rifle range. And when I tell people this I emphasize NO, I am NOT joking; .223 or .556 is a guaranteed way to fix your Baofeng troubles quick, fast and in a hurry ‼️
I don't think I've ever heard of a school shooting that the nutjob planned out by listening to the school radios. They usually walk in by a unsecured door.Uh, no.
This is EXACTLY where encryption should be used. Schools are dealing with children and children with issues. There's zero reason why anyone needs to listen in on that.
Recent history has already shown us that there are those in the country that have no issues at all shooting children at school. Protecting them at all costs is what my taxpayer dollars go for.
I was actually very happy when my son graduated high school a few weeks back that he had made it all the way through without a school shooting or any other drama.
My gawd...which state do you reside in?I don't think I've ever heard of a school shooting that the nutjob planned out by listening to the school radios. They usually walk in by a unsecured door.
I'm more worried about "furries" corrupting kids when their classmates hiss, growl, scratch, claw, etc. and go to the bathroom in a litter box at school.
My granddaughter reside in Mass.My gawd...which state do you reside in?
