The police forces are meant to be moving to 4g this year and ditching Tetra but it's not going to plan atm as 4g is so unreliable in general when in motion outside of urban areas so I doubt it will happen.
The Emergency Services Network seems to be going ahead, despite delays and technical issues and EE's 4G coverage in rural areas is being greatly extended to ensure constant communication so shouldn't be an issue. There's no alternative anyway - Airwave/Tetra is well past its sell-by date.untakenname said:
I've got a blueye and it's invaluable on rural roads, it's not that useful in urban areas due to reflections off buildings and other types of emergency vehicles.
It's paid for itself back multiple times within the past few years (mainly entrapment prevention) and isn't much money in the scheme of things (when you compare it to dealer fit options).
Make sure when it's being fitted is to use the installer firmware and find the best position in the car as it's quite sensitive to emi, I found an external dipole antenna improved the accuracy quite a bit.

It is definitely happening, lots of testing already started.It's paid for itself back multiple times within the past few years (mainly entrapment prevention) and isn't much money in the scheme of things (when you compare it to dealer fit options).

I hear the small delays are due to peripheral areas.
But from next year ESN will start replacing Airwave

We're dropping Tetra soon (not soon enough....it's s
t) and moving over to 4G devices that are a radio and smart phone all in one.
What is it they say about a fool and his money?......
Only person that's a fool is the guy who could of bought one but didn't, Then gets captured by a donut like yourself, t) and moving over to 4G devices that are a radio and smart phone all in one. What is it they say about a fool and his money?......
Good evening

How annoyed they all get when people try and defend themselves against excessive and over-zealous policing. How dare you! 
Priceless. Damn those over-zealous police officers doing their job. People need to defend themselves from them!!!!
What other laws dont matter, is it OK for me punch someone in the face because I don't agree with the offences against the person act?

Poor analogy, exceeding speed limits is 99.99999999% or thereabouts a victimless crime, and has no intended victim either.Damn those over-zealous police officers doing their job. People need to defend themselves from them!!!!

You think TETRA detectors are just used by speeders ?99% of motorists speed at some point.
99.99% of motorists don't have or feel the need for a detector.

The point is you can't pick and choose.
