Post by vk6hgr »

Almost 500 CFA brigades across Victoria will be able to communicate directly with those who dispatch them to emergencies, saving valuable time, when a state-of-the-art digital communications network is rolled out over the next 18 months.

The CFA has been rolling out Tait P25 mobiles and portables for at least the past twelve months. Must be an election coming up in Victoria.
