Re: Old EDACS system off the air

Re: Old EDACS system off the air
EDACS CAN'T be reused. The frequencies have been allocated to Sprint / Nextel and will probably go off the air sometime between now and the completion of the region 5 rebanding.

I don't think Riverside PD needs an "all units channel" because the whole City is typically dispatched on CH1 except when they are "split City" and use CH 3 as a secondary dispatch channel. With RSO the stations typically each have their own channel which necessitates an "al...
