New Plan available!
We have developed a coordinated plan to assist EMA directors in preparing a communications plan both for current and future needs. If you are involved in Education, EMS, Fire, Police, or other activities relating to first responder activities, you may want to review this plan. It is available in PDF format at www.falconwireless.net/alliance.pdf. Check it out! We think you will find it to be of interest.
This plan references a technology called LTR trunking. We suggest that any future handhelds and mobiles purchased should have this capability. There is no significant increase in cost and the benefits to your long term planning can be significant.
Also, many dispatch centers are reporting problems with unauthorized transmissions from persons who should not be transmitting on primary dispatch channels or transmissions not relating to public safety activities. The solution to this problem is a digital ID system called MDC1200 signaling.
To address this need, Motorola has announced a new line of radios with MDC1200 included as a standard feature. For additional information, please visit www.falcon4u.com.
