Rebanding Phase I


Starting today, Motorola will begin the process to retune the one Dublin frequency that is subject to rebanding. COIRS channel #1 (852.0125) is being retuned to the new assigned frequency (856.6125).

Today, Motorola will be taking the three Dub/Wor sites off line for approximately 2 hours each to prepare the sites for the move. Users may see some diminished coverage, especially in buildings, as each site is taken off line.

Tomorrow, Motorola will take channel #1 off the air for most of the day to complete the actual retuning. Users should not notice any change in service during this work.

Since this frequency is not used as a control channel, there are no changes needed to subscriber equipment.

The three NPSPAC channels licensed to Worthington will be rebanded sometime in 2011 after mutual aid subcribers are upgraded to accomodate the new, lower frequencies.
