Codan Radio Communications has won a US$3.2 million order to supply MT-4E repeater systems to the US Department of Agriculture’s Forest Service.

The equipment will be used throughout all nine designated forest regions within the United States.

The Forest Service operates in some of the harshest terrain and remotest locations within the country to ensure the maintenance of day-to-day operations and the safety of service personnel and co-operators. Its radio systems provide critical communications during emergency situations including wildfires and law enforcement.

“Our MT-4E repeater platform was developed specifically to operate in the harshest conditions to provide reliable communications for all situations, including emergencies and mission-critical applications,” said Ben Pearce, Codan Radio Communications’ director of LMR sales.

The MT-4E technology has backwards compatibility with the existing USFS radio network.
