For Immediate Release
November 1st, 2011
Portland, OR – TRBOWEST announces the availability of the TRBOWEST Digital Network beginning November 1st, 2011. The digital two-way radio network consists of 13 mountaintop sites, spanning over 400 highway miles from the Canadian border to south of Eugene, Oregon.
TRBOWEST offers a low, flat rate for unlimited digital two-way radio and data communication. The system is constructed using Motorola’s “MOTOTRBO” platform of equipment, thus the namesake TRBOWEST. This is the first digital radio network made available to Seattle and Western Washington businesses and agencies. Future expansion of the TRBOWEST coverage area is planned within Oregon and Washington, and roaming agreements will be made for connecting with other regional networks.
Wide area radio, or dispatch radio is used by businesses and government agencies with mobile workers such as transportation, construction, delivery, agriculture, private security, and sanitation. The radio network offers unlimited voice communication and data for GPS tracking, text messaging, and other custom software applications. “The TRBOWEST network is a solution to make our customers more productive, safer, and improve their bottom line. Keeping all mobile employees connected to each other makes the entire team safer and more efficient. We are also seeing significant cost savings for our customers when comparing our system to similar cellular solutions,” said Dean Ballew, Manager at TRBOWEST.
Digital radio systems have several significant advantages over analog systems. Voice quality is much clearer due to noise cancellation and digital encoding. Software applications are easy to develop and integrate with digital radio. TRBOWEST also has seamless site roaming and signal strength meters which make the equipment easy to operate.
The TRBOWEST Digital Network operates as an independent business entity, but is owned by Day Wireless Systems, the largest wireless integrator in the West. Authorized Motorola Solutions dealers in the Pacific Northwest are able to offer their customers this digital wide area solution.

Milwaukie, OR- Day Wireless Systems has secured two communications facilities in the Pacific Northwest by way of long term site management agreements. The latest towers added to the DWS roster are located in Bremerton, Washington and Salem, Oregon.
City of Bremerton has partnered with Day Wireless Systems (DWS) for management of their 180’ self- supported tower located in a residential area desirable for cellular and broadband applications. The large communications shelter is equipped with separate rooms for colocation privacy.
A Salem, OR based private party selected DWS to manage their 60’ self-supported tower which provides coverage of Santiam Highway. In addition to the existing compound, DWS will also be marketing the surrounding land for build-to-suit.
Day Wireless Systems, a west coast tower company, is continually expanding their footprint of towers in seven Western states. Same-day leasing, low rates, and flexible terms are a few of the qualities that set Day Wireless apart in the tower industry. For a map of all Day Wireless tower sites, visit http://www.daywireless.com/towers. To speak with a sites representative please call 800-554-0402.
“Our acquisition of the Bremerton tower is the result of effective marketing,” said Bethany Davidson, Sites and Leasing Specialist. “The City received a mailer and liked what we had to offer.” Dean Ballew, Sites Development Manager for DWS attributes the Santiam Highway site to a wide network of contacts. “We knew the site owner from a different sector of our company’s business- he saw first-hand our reliability and success, so when his tower became available we were the first and only tower operator he called,” states Ballew.

The FCC recently released a reminder of the commission’s January 1, 2013 narrowband deadline for private land mobile radio services in the VHF and UHF bands to migrate to 12.5 kHz or less technology. A couple of key developments were addressed in the July 13, 2011 public notice, specifically:
- The FCC will accept requests for waiver of the narrowbanding guideline
- The FCC clearly states the monetary fines for non-compliance
For the first time, the FCC has provided guidance on how to prepare waiver requests for the narrowbanding deadline by licensees. Earlier this year, APCO International First Vice President Gregg Riddle was quoted, “The FCC reaffirmed that they have no intentions of extending the compliance deadline of Jan. 1, 2013. All licensees are expected to comply, and the use of waivers should not be viewed as a simple option [for] narrowbanding.”
The recommended content of waiver requests certainly does not provide a “simple option” for non-compliance, and applications for waiver are sure to be scrutinized heavily.
The consequences of failing to comply were another key point covered in the public notice. According to the document, “Operation in violation of the Commission’s rules may subject licensees to appropriate enforcement action, including admonishments, license revocation, and/or monetary forfeitures of up to $16,000 for each such violation or each day of a continuing violation and up to $112,500 for any single act or failure to act.”
Day Wireless Systems has helped thousands of agencies with narrowband compliance and planning, call us today to speak with a trained consultant: 800-503-3433.
The Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) helps firefighters and first responders to enhance their ability to protect the community and their own personnel from fire and related hazards. FEMA has announced that the application period would be opening soon, and there are many tools available to help your agency prepare for the grant. Online resources are available and grant workshops are scheduled throughout the month of July.
Contact Day Wireless Systems for more information on the AFG grant and how advanced Motorola public safety radio systems can help improve operational effectiveness, response time, and make your communities safer.
