Bring back 183A

Post by cjradloff76 »

Hello everyone,

i encourage everyone on here to kick up a real stink at Motorola for turning off 183a on mt cootha. it stops us from being able to test our gear in the west.

call for motorola to reinstate 183a as soon as possible.

stop filling up town with the TETRA stuff.

ill like to see the type 2's come back so we can spend time playing with our scanners.

Never going to happen. It is ancient technology.

Motorola have decommissioned their 800 MHz Smartnet systems in Sydney, Melbourne, and possibly even Perth.

Clinton,

as Comint stated Motorola Solutions have decommissioned there Smartnet Systems have been made redundant by the Motorola Zeon Digital system which allows more users and more features then the previous smartnet systems. no matter how much you complain to Motorola Solutions the Zeon Digital Network is here to stay and to be brutely honest with you i prefer the Zeon Network for its features
