Don't lose your radios in 2013. Contact NRTC today!

In a public notice released Dec. 11, 2009, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) confirmed that it would not change the 2013 deadline to narrowband private land mobile radios (LMRs). All two-way LMR systems operating in 150-174 and 450-512 MHz spectrum must switch to narrowband 12.5 kHz-spaced channels by Jan. 1, 2013. (Note that 220 MHz spectrum is not affected by this regulatory move.) The notice also confirmed that, after January 1, 2011, the Commission will prohibit the manufacturing or import of any LMR equipment operating in 25 kHz-spaced channel mode.

NRTC can ensure that you don't lose mobile radio services after the 2013 deadline! To explore your options and to learn more about the FCC requirements, contact your Regional Business Manager.
