System Notes
This system came alive on April, 23, 1999 at 16:00hrs. All Frequencies will be in use at all 3 sites,. The system will be in analog but will eventually be converted to an ASTRO system. They have been using DES-XL for testing of deviation levels. The System is supposed to be fully and will have total county switchover by August 1, 1999. An interesting side note is after they promised the county that this system would be secure from scanner listeners, Motorola showed them a Trunktracker last week and then told them it would not be secure.

Users of system:
Galveston County
City of Galveston
Hitchcock
Texas City
Tiki Island
Santa Fe
Dickinson
Bayou Vista

La Marque - They are now using the Galveston County 800 system, and are presently 'patching' all of their UHF traffic, both ways, through the GC system. They have some 800 equipment already, and are in the process of purchasing the remaining equipment needed to complete the transfer of Police, Fire and EMS dispatching operations, to the GC trunked system

(Friendswood will not be switching to 800)
