Previously discussed on the forum back in July 2008 was the grant Scarsdale FD received to switch to UHF portables. Now listed on the FCC site : 458.9275 mgz 4 watt radios. Perhaps a member of SFD could add some information to the thread reguarding progress now that the actual radios are on hand in Scarsdale. Below is a quote from Remember585 as to a possible plan for the future communications on the fireground.
