OT - Part 90 Radio System - Equipment Suggestions

I live in an area on the Oregon Coast that has many canyons and other such features.

The (tiny) local water district wants to have a voice radio system, probably in the VHF high bands, for their service vehicles (totaling 3).

It will be necessary to have 4 repeater locations to properly cover their service area. All of the radios much act as one, seamlessly.

I do have IP connectivity (30/30) between each of the sites.

Does any one know of IP capable radios that would work in this application? Other suggestions...?

TIA

mototrbo will do it if they don't want to have to change channels at all. if they don't care about having to change channels, then just get an IP capabale RICK and tie the repeaters together with it.

The Mototrbo solution is perfect. And they have budget for such a system.

A happy circumstance.

Try as I might, though, the terrain here is so difficult that I cannot eliminate any of the repeaters. This is in an area that has a service area of about 2 miles diameter, AND they have tanks on the high ground.

The next thing is to get the repeater pairs. I know about the requirement for frequency coordination. Their preference is for VHF high band.

Can anyone offer some guidance (process, forms, etc) on best ways to move that along...?

Again, TIA

»llink.pcia.com is the coordinator unless this water district is a government agency.
