\nSubject: [GE-Mpa] Funny how things work out - M/PA Extender
\n
\n
\n>I have been a Motorola head for a while. Recently, because of the
\n> pricing of the GE M/PA and because of some familiarily with the unit
\n> (L.A. County Sheriff's Dept.), I thought I would look at getting a few
\n> units and hamflash the radios.
\n>
\n> I live in Rosarito Beach, Baja Californa, Mexico, and I have been
\n> helping with communications issues with the Polica. So I was pleased
\n> to some degree to see that I could use the M/PA to augment the
\n> Motorola units that are currently deployed (One problem that exists is
\n> the fact that fact that the M/PA does not allow for DTSS encoding, and
\n> we utilize that on the repeater!).
\n>
\n> Even more exciting to me was the files related to the CHP extender and
\n> information on the overall application. The problem with the Policia
\n> (as well as the Bomberos [fire] and the Commercial Policia) is that
\n> they depend on the handhelds that they use for all communications. So
\n> when they are on trying to get a signal out when they are located in
\n> one of the many valleys, the ability to get a message out is next to
\n> impossible.
\n>
\n> I would like to talk to someone about the possibilty of using the M/PA
\n> to deploy handhelds to the officers, and also using the M/PA to create
\n> a mobile extender. The extended needs to be designed so that a PA can
\n> be added so that I can put out at the very least 25W.
\n>
\n> Considering that this may be off topic or of limited interests, please
\n> e-mail me at kim.callis@... so that I can understand how best to
\n> get this working.
