The Simulcast
Austintown Boardman Radio System is now on-line. January 30, 2013 A Motorola P25 digital 800 MHz trunking system was turned on today and will serve both Townships public safety communications needs for many years to come. The old radio systems in both Townships were unreliable, antiquated, beyond repair and by FCC mandate had to be replaced. The cost of this new system was shared between both Townships thus effectively providing each Township with the capabilities of a $1.6 million dollar radio system for half the cost. Please check back later for updates to this page and photos of the new system. |
