If you are in Southern California, or are otherwise interested in PTTSTar, you get:
Roaming

  • Built-in vote-scan automatically seeks and finds the best radio site for you, locks on to it, then re-scans continuously to ensure great system performance
  • Your new Icom radio is fully networked with no action on your part: no selector switches, no changing channels, it’s automatic and just plain simple
Quality
  • 100% digital just like your cell phone where the voice message is digital from end-to-end and never returns to analog until your ears hear the speaker on the receiving radio, computer or WiFi device
  • We have the best facility-based WiFi handheld Icom radios (with zero airtime cost) that work over your own 2.4 GHz WiFi; they network to our IDAS MT system for excellent indoor service (Really!)
Features
Our new Icom IDAS MT system is a 2-way Land Mobile Radio (LMR) system’s wildest dream of possibilities. A few of the benefits:
  • We can transport any short-form specialized data from end-to-end, for example MAGCONX provides credit card processing-- the uses are limitless
  • GPS is built into most of the new radios: fleet tracking is here!
  • Icom supports a really nifty nationwide PTT service via a private LTE network designed and built by AT&T to serve ONLY Icom users; we call this www.PTTSTAR.com and of course it networks to and from our IDAS MT system
What LTE Means for You
  • Office to jobsite, job-to-job, talk directly to your vehicles, personnel and SUBS
  • Stop paying to use employee cell phones
  • Group Calling allows One to MANY and One-to-ALL calling (no extra charge)
  • Coverage area (stripes show third party service):


Best For Last
  • Very competitive pricing, with low cost local service or wide area performance, whatever you need. Our NOC in Torrance can switch features quickly over-the-air on request, no more reprogramming or service calls just to upgrade.
The points of the Push-To-Talk STAR are:
  • Land Mobile Radio (LMR) 2-way radio with coverage in the map highlighted area below
  • Facility based LAN/ WAN Ethernet carried WiFi radios with no monthly costs network into the star topography
