EMPHASIS: Troop I Conducting Radio Coverage Survey


Captain Lee Ann H. Kenley, commanding officer of Troop I, would like to make the citizens of Troop I aware of a radio coverage survey. Patrol members and retired Patrol personnel are conducting the radio coverage survey on new communications equipment for the entire Troop I area in South Central Missouri. The survey must be done on every road throughout the area to ensure overall system performance. At times, citizens will observe unmarked patrol vehicles traveling at a very slow rate of speed in some of the more rural areas in Troop I. The unmarked vehicles are occupied by one Patrol member or a retired Patrol employee and employees from the Motorola Company. The field testing is expected to last for several months.
