WACO, Texas –
CAP will no longer use any of the old
wideband channels after Dec. 31 2009.
V1, V2, V3, V4
and any repeaters with a designation
beginning in "P" will not be used after Dec.
31.
CC1, CC2, Air1,
Air 2, Tac1, Guard1 and repeaters beginning
in the designation "R" will be used.
After Dec. 31,
some of our old channels may be in use buy
other organizations.
References to
the old channels must be removed from plans,
SPINS, ICS205's and briefing notes.
Wideband
interoperability channels, such as TXLAW1, 2
& 3, TXFIRE1, 2, & 3, and so on will still
be used as directed. These are not affected
by the narrowband conversion until 2012.
If you have any
CAP-owned radio not yet reprogrammed with
the new channels, please contact me, and
arrangements will be made for programming.
If you have
personally-owned compliant equipment, you
will need to arrange to have it reprogrammed
yourself, your Group Communications Officer
can help you with the channel information.
If you have any
questions, please ask your local
communications officers first, then go to
the Group Communications Officer.
