Decatur MPT
Decatur PD is the only service using the MPT system that I am aware of. All the rest of Wise Co. is sill VHF. The system was initialy put in in hopes that the whole county would switch to it, but aparently it doesnt work all that well and Decatur Fire gave them back all their radios and went back to VHF several years ago. Also, from what I understand, Warner Radio paid for the entire system and is leasing it to Decatur PD.
Wise Co. is having major issues with the Fire and SO channel right now and the radio shop does not seem to want to fix it. There are times when the fire channel is down for several hours and no one is ever told about it. The SO deputies have a very hard time getting out on portables and has severe bleedover from the fire channel. There has been talk of a VHF trunking system, a P25 system to tag onto Parker Co. system. Motorola has been trying to con the county into that for a few years now. But still, same old VHF and same old problems for many years now.
