WASHINGTON, DC??On August 21, 2012, the Department of Homeland Security?s Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) will mark the end of the pilot phase of its Multi-Band Radio initiative with the presentation of radios to participating state and local emergency response agencies. Multi-band radio technology will allow police officers, firefighters, and other emergency management and response personnel to communicate with partner agencies regardless of radio band. The presentation will take place at the Association of Public Safety Communications Officials (APCO) Conference in Minneapolis, MN.
Fifteen emergency response agencies took part in the multi-band radio pilots conducted across the nation, culminating in its transition to the emergency response community.
