"Communications is a life or death situation"

It's a shame the CPD system is so bad that you cant even use it in Countryside mall or Countryside HS Jesus the tower is right there at Dist 2.....lol

Public safety personnel concerned about digital radio transition



"We don't want to be on the news for having a line of duty death," Altman
said. "That's nothing anybody wants, and the radio system is a big key with
preventing that."




Maybe if our Command Staff at CPD actually carried radios then they would know they don't work and would do like the Philadelphia Chief. That means they would actually have to come out of the palace.

The radio issue was at its worse level last night. Transmitting issues on a Agg. Assault/Shooting, Domestic Battery involving a knife and an assortment of Robbery calls with a firearm. We can not stand by why Command Staff drags their feet with the decision to fix this issue. We responded to potential life threatening situations that could have ended badly for our troops.


"In some cases, public-safety executives issue gag orders that bar employees and contractors from discussing system shortcomings. Employees face disciplinary action for talking about the communications systems that they rely on for personal safety."
