Oh no no no not yet.
the whole fleet has NOT switched yet, but we ARE switching to the 5000s. i will post a picture soon.
OK, lots of information has been presented here, some of it valid.
The XTS 3000 handheld radio (along with the Syntor mobiles used in the patrol fleet) is at end of product support life. It also will not operate in the soon-to-be-used 700 MHz band. The Department is purchasing XTS 5000 radios as replacements for the older handheld radios due to the durability, construction, and features of the XTS 5000 (not because we like to waste money).
NONE of the 800 MHz XTS 3000 / 5000 radios are currently being used inside the Detentions environment, which operates today on UHF and uses HT 750 / 1000 / 1250 radios in analog operations. FCC-mandated narrow banding of the UHF spectrum will cause some of those radios to be replaced.
NO changes have been made to the patrol and court services operations of SDSD on the RCS. That does not mean that changes will not be made in the future.
San Diego PD has been replacing their much-older mobiles and Saber portables with XTL / XTS 2500 mobiles / handhelds.
