.
For about the last year, the O.E.M.C. / C.F.D. current UHF
477.0000 MHz. P-25 digital radio system has been having
intermittent problems where the Fire Alarm Offices cannot
read the portable radio's of Fire and E.M.S. Companies
in the field.
When this intermittent problem occurs, the Fire Alarm
Office has Companies switch over to the new 800 MHz.
P- 25 Phase 2 digital radio system for reliable
communications until the problem clears.
.
We are working on bringing the 800 MHz. Trunking System LIVE FEED through
Broadcastify.com to this website for Fire Main and Englewood Alarm Offices!
.Unless you have a 800 MHz. digital P-25 Phase 2 scanner radio,
you will NOT be able to monitor C.F.D. channels!
.
This 800 MHz. digital P-25 Phase 2 system will be coming to the C.F.D.
and all City of Chicago agencies and departments in the future
including C.P.D. Zones and Citywides!
.
The average price for a Uniden model # SMS100 handheld/portable scanner is
$650.00 plus programing, sales tax and delivery, if you can find a unit to purchase!
Digital scanner radios are VERY technical! You do not just entering the frequency
to listen! If you are NOT computer knowledgeable you will need to have your
digital scanner pre-programed at an additional cost to you and watch helpful
videos on YouTube.com on how to operate your new scanner radio!
