Re: Boost Mobile said by meister_sd: This is the biggest reason most first responders use Nextel.
PTT, PTT, PTT.
Thats the drive behind the public safety use.
Its used as a huge "private channel" network to avoid the existing network which may not have encryption abilities.
iDEN also replaced almost all the SMR trunked systems that existed, although private SMR via LTR trunking is making a good comeback in many areas.
Sole reason I have a Boost is for the PTT, thats it. I would have to look up the phone number to tell you it. The DC/PTT/walkie talkie is what used 99.99999% Theres been a very few instances in some remote areas where I've had to use it to make a interconnect call in place of my VZW, but I could count that on one hand and have plenty left.
PTT is what drives iDEN use more than any thing. -- If its not Linux, Unix or BSD, it SUCKS! - Ban all copyright, trademarks, and IP laws!//Lorem ipsum ei pro stet equidem labores, at enim animal expetenda nec. Ea vix argumentum dissentiunt, usu esse ridens ex. |
