Duplex radio repeater systems don’t support:
Multiple transmissions
Additionally, multiple transmissions given at the same time May Cancel Out All Transmissions.
*Failure of the repeater system for any reason, will also negate all commnications on the repeater channel
What are the types of Duplex Repeaters?
- Duplex UHF Repeater (FDNY Programmed) (Ch 11, 12, 14, 15) - allow the fdny to use our HT with this system.
- Duplex UHF and Duplex VHF Repeaters (Proprietary) - some building owners and agencies have maintained radio repeaters in their facilities Which DO NOT Operate on Our Frequencies.
Base Station Leaky Cable Simplex UHF or VHF Radio System:
a base radio connected to a cable that runs through a building/infrastructure.
it is a SIMPLEX RADIO that can either operate on FD UHF HT channels 1-8 (FD Programmed) or it may utilize in-house radios (Proprietary)
- transmissions made from the base station will be carried by the cable to all areas of the building or infrastructure. The Chrysler Building is an example of a FD Programmed base station leaky cable system.
Base Station Leaky Cable System transmissions captured by the cable:
are received by the base station radio but are NOT Re-Transmitted. Therefore, important messages that are needed to be heard by all members should be re-transmitted at the base station by the member monitoring transmissions.
FD ops in bldgs or infrastructure which are equipped with ARCS:
- Officer activate ARCS (1620 key or on/off switch) at the Fire Command Station, if so equipped
- Officer instructs member designated to staff ICP to monitor tactical and/or repeater channel/relay messages
* *3. Officer stays on Ch 1, or Ch 11/12, or Get Bldg Radio
* *4. Officer ENSURES a Functional Test performed PRIOR to leaving the lobby. - Officer notify Dispatcher for re-transmittal to all incoming units if duplex UHF repeater system and Channel 11 or 12 have been activated or in-house radios are being used.
- Officer and members will proceed to location of reported incident.
Other Infrastructure with ARCS:
- officer activate ARCS (1620 key or on/off switch) at Fire Command Station/Console, if equipped.
- officer instructs member designated to staff ICP to monitor tactical and/or repeater channel/relay messages
* *3. officer remains on ch 1, acquire in-house radios set to appropriate repeater channel, or switch HT to duplex UHF radio repeater channel (Ch 11 and 12) as appropriate. (NOT 14 or 15) - officer ENSURE functional test performed PRIOR to leaving ICP
- officer notify dispatcher for re-transmittal ch 11 and 12 are being used
- officer and remaining members proceed to location
* 7. HT Relay (Ch 1 - Primary Tactical) must still be established*
Infrastructure (subways, tunnels, transportation hubs, and below grade ops) subways equipped with duplex uhf radio repeater system (FD Programmed) - once operations are underway and conditions dictate:
the IC can have the repeater system tested to see if its functioning. Once confirmed its functioning the IC may attempt to use the repeater system as a Command Channel. (may direct officers to switch to Ch 14)
IC must notify the FAST Truck when additional communication channels are used.
The FAST Truck will need to obtain an additional HT for each channel in use.
What are some signs of ARCS failure?
Unusual periods of radio silence or
Continued inability to make radio contact
What do you do when encountering a dead spot in Duplex radio repeater coverage?
prior to abandoning, Return to a location where previous communications were successful. If communications at this location are now successful on the ARCS channel, report the dead spot to the IC and continue to operate on the ARCS.
If unsuccessful, use HT on Ch 1 to report the repeater failure to the IC
