Atlanta PD has in place a radio communication system called CommNet. This is a system that allows the PD to have direct radio communications with local private security firms. As I understand it they provide the channel (or frequency) and the companies have to provide the radio. I also understand that not every single s/o has the radio that is capableof doing this. I understand that it is for either the shift commander or at the companies dispatch center.
This allows the security company to have immediate access to the PD incase of emergency and likewise, the PD can broadcast ATL's and BOLO's (Attempt To Locate and Be On the LookOut).
Does anyone have any further information on this? Does your local Pd have anything of this nature? Does it worK? What are the penalties for misuse?
I had the link, but it got deleted on accident. So here I am...
