The current radios deployed are almost 10 years old and are end of life with parts no longer being manufactured. The ESD2 Board of Commissioners approved the purchase of 275 800mhz handheld radios from Motorola at the November 2nd meeting. Smith County ESD2 IT Staff are certified to program the radios so Smith County ESD2 ITS staff will receive, assemble, inventory, program, issue, and train personnel in the use of the radios.
