The Emergency Telephone System Board in McLean County wants to update its unified emergency responder radio system. It will be expensive. The current Starcom system was developed in the years following the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Interagency difficulty in communicating during and immediately after that tragedy highlighted a need across the U.S. for a common platform. As implemented in McLean County, though, there have been gaps and dead zones in which radio reception either didn’t work at all or faded inside buildings.
