Yes it requires money. So it’s ironic this occurred at a venue, D.C., that has the highest number of wealthy people in the country.
Seems even with the best systems, they can’t get things right in D.C.
USCP already has a good radio system, they just need to activate a few features. One of the challenges in the last decade has been that the FCC keeps selling public safety spectrum off to commercial users. That has meant that money which could have been spent on added featurea, like force tracking, has been spent on rebanding and transitioning to trunked radio systems.
