question for SDPD K-9
Do K-9 units get more than 1 radio? meaning do they have RCS radios in addition to their City TRS units? or do they just have the mutual aid (Law south cmd, etc) programmed in their TRS units? it seems like they have the some of the better equipped patrol units (lojack, pronet, mutual aid freqs, auto roll down windows) among the motor pool.
All the K9 cars have the digital radio in them. We have the county RCS system as well as the city system. The only "wish" thing is that we could scan the RCS freqs on the radio itself. (which is why many K9's ahve scanners in the cars...)
Other than the radios and the door pop system we don't really have much different than the patrol fleet. The big difference is assigned cars that just don't get the use and abuse of the patrol fleet. I just got a new car to replace the one that I got in August of 01. 7 years out of a police car ain't bad. (and it was given to a new guy...)
