I received an email that includes a detailed FCC application for the City of Elgin, Illinois. The application (ID: 0005972614) outlines plans for a new radio system that will enhance public safety communications across the region. The application includes multiple transmitter locations, frequency details, and technical specifications.
The proposed system is an 8-site ASTRO 25 simulcast network operating on 700/800 MHz frequencies, with a 9-link microwave backhaul connected to the STARCOM21 network. It aims to provide reliable communication for the Elgin Police and Fire Departments, as well as other city agencies. The system will also support interoperability with neighboring agencies such as Kane County, DuPage County, and others.
The application lists several locations where transmitters will be installed, including key areas like the intersection of Route 25 and I-90, 777 S. State Street, and 2355 College Green Drive. Each site has specific geographic coordinates provided for reference.
Additionally, the application includes frequency data, such as 851.325, 851.6625, 853.625, and 854.2875 MHz, along with technical parameters like power levels and channel configurations. These frequencies are intended to expand the STARCOM21 network, which is a state-wide public safety communication system managed by Motorola Solutions.
The City of Elgin is seeking to integrate its local frequencies into the STARCOM21 system, allowing for better coordination and communication between law enforcement, fire, and emergency medical services. The system is designed to meet the Grade of Service requirements and provide 16 dB in-building coverage for all public safety agencies.
Interoperability is a key focus, with the system supporting communication with existing agencies using 800 MHz, UHF, VHF, and low-band frequencies. Crosspatch capabilities and dedicated talkgroups will enable seamless communication during emergencies.
The application also includes contour maps showing coverage areas for both the new Elgin sites and existing STARCOM21 sites in Kane County. These maps were generated using Hydra, an internal software tool developed by Motorola.
No frequencies are planned to be vacated at this time. The implementation is scheduled to be completed by October 2013, with all 738 users expected to be onboarded by then.
This initiative is expected to significantly improve public safety operations in the region by enhancing communication and collaboration among various agencies.
