The changes in infrastructure to convert from a simplex support net to a repeated command net are substantial. It would include installation of equipment on the affected mountain tops, programming in all the mobiles and portables, and provision of some sort of access to the dispatch center, depending on how they choose to do it. Not to mention coordination with all the agencies likely to be affected. In short, it's a lot of work.cvrules90 wrote:But why is it not changing in the Blythe area?
