It crashed again last night. Motorola is taking some heavy heat from the Police and Fire departments and their respective unions to get it fixed. The police commisioner is in favor of scraping the hole system!
Being a regular listener of the system I was wondering what all of the other regular listeners of the system thoughts are. I personally liked the old UHF system much better as I could hear it much farther away from the city than I can with the new system. Even when I'm in the city there are a lot of dead areas where I lose the control channel. Never had this problem with the old system.
I sure hope they don't switch to something we cannot monitor. With $52 million invested into this system something tells me they will probably try to fix what they have, or sue Motorola for supplying an inferior radio system that fails on a regular basis.
