radio info from 2012 annual report - FRNSW Australia

this is the structural FD

Radio communication FRNSW in conjunction with the NSW Police Force
conducted a joint procurement process for supply and installation of
replacement radio operator systems for their respective Communication
Centres that will provide a digital platform that integrates with and
takes full advantage of the NSW P25 Government Radio Network and the
FRNSW Private Mobile Radio Network which is also evolving to P25
digital operation.

FRNSW selected a handheld radio transceiver to replace approximately
2,500 transceivers that have reached the end of their service. The
replacement radios are specifically designed for firefighting
operations with features that include intrinsically safe working,
lightweight, submersible, improved ergonomics, embedded GPS, Bluetooth
capabilities and the opportunity to integrate with breathing apparatus
communications in the future. Rollout of the transceivers will be
completed in late 2013.

The Australian Communications & Media Authority has requested
Government radio users to move into the "harmonised government band"
between 420 and 430 MHz. This required an upgrade of the FRNSW Private
Mobile Radio Network to the P25 technology which began in 2012 with a
pilot of six radio sites.

Planning for the upgrade of a further 16 sites is underway with
completion expected by December 2013 with the upgrade of all 128
analogue radio sites to be completed over for the next four years.
Additional radio coverage was provided at Gloucester (Copeland Tops)
and Walcha (Grundy Mountain).
