1.

Thank you for sending the Bid 24-66 Handheld Radios. I did not see the number of handheld units needed, the number of locations (schools and administration buildings) that require repeaters, or whether a base station is required for dispatch.

SCCPSS purchases about 250 radio handheld units per year as needed.

We have 65 locations but all these sites do not require a repeater. We only install repeaters at schools that are new construction or have signal issues.

A base station is not required for campus police radios and they have a different radio and frequency.

Are you adding these radios to existing equipment?

Will the new radios need to communicate with your existing equipment, or is this a brand-new system?
