Digital Radio Improvement Is Loud And Clear

By Brian Albright, Integrated Solutions magazine

Reliable radio service is critical for emergency services to operate effectively. When disaster strikes, police, fire, medical, and other departments must be able to communicate with each other in order to coordinate services. However, many county and city agencies have difficulty managing their communications systems because these departments use disparate radio systems that are not interoperable. Christian County, KY, recently deployed a multisite, multidepartment digital radio system that solved its radio interoperability issues and provided reliable communications for its emergency services providers.
