New M/A Comm Digital system

Post by ASTROMODAT »

Get a load of this: (From a "Strong Signals" link to a recent press article involving a new multi-million $ system in Labanon, PA)

"Although the M/A-Com system is digital, the new county radios will be able to communicate with analog equipment, according to Short. That is a feature that Motorola lacks and one that will benefit volunteer firefighters who want to purchase less expensive equipment, he said. Police will want to use digital radios because their message can be encrypted, said Short."

The press is so gullible. I wish they would do their homework.
