I was looking at the Ericsson.... errr, 'Ma/Com Wireless' EDACS homepage a
little while ago, and see they have just released a P25 capable radio.

The DPH is compliant with the Project 25 standard established by the Association of Public Safety Communication Officials (APCO). Project 25, which establishes a standard for digital LMR devices to meet FCC requirements for more efficient use of radio spectrum, is being increasingly adopted by government and public safety, land mobile radio (LMR) users nationwide. Utilizing state of the art technology, the DPH was developed internally by the Company's engineering team and provides major advantages over other digital portable radio offerings, including a unique combination of outstanding performance, technical specifications, and affordability. The DPH is significantly less expensive than any comparable product currently offered, yet offers excellent audio clarity and extended battery life. Furthermore, complex, non-critical functions have been streamlined or eliminated, making the unit very easy to use. Current BK Radio customers can utilize existing accessories, such as antennas and batteries, a capability that further reduces an initial investment. Moreover, the core design of the digital board allows the Company's GPH analog portable radios to be upgraded to the new digital platform. Accordingly, current BK Radio analog users can transform their analog units to digital APCO Project 25-compliant radios at a cost lower than the purchase of a new DPH. The Company also offers a trade-in program for its E-Series portable radio under which customers can receive credit toward the purchase of a new DPH. David Storey, President and CEO of RELM, commented, "We have long believed that APCO Project 25-compliant digital products are a strategic key to our future success. The FCC approval of the DPH is a critical milestone toward achieving our objectives for growth and profitability. It is important to emphasize that our design and digital technology was developed internally and is RELM-owned, not licensed from a competitor. The end result is a product that, we believe, is by far the best value in the market today for APCO Project 25 compliant digital portable radios. With the DPH completed, our development efforts have been brought to bear on an APCO Project 25 compliant VHF digital mobile radio, the DMH. We look forward to introducing the DMH later this year." Project 25 specifies features and signaling for narrow band digital voice and data, in both conventional and trunking modes of operation. The standard has been adopted by the U.S. Federal Government, which has targeted a conversion to Project 25 by year-end 2005. A cornerstone of Project 25 is to provide effective inter-operability among users of compliant equipment, regardless of the manufacturer. Through this open system architecture, Project 25 will provide an environment where users will have a wider selection of LMR suppliers, such as RELM. For over 55 years, RELM has manufactured and marketed two-way FM business-band radios as well as high-specification public safety mobile and portable radios, repeaters and accessories, base station components and subsystems. Products are manufactured and distributed worldwide under RELM Communications, Uniden PRC and BK Radio brand names.
