2. Step Two- Design Templates

Determine how many templates your agency will need?

CPD/Sheriff –work together to design a standard?

CFD/Co Fire – work together to design a standard?(example where Mutual Aid Channels are located more uniformed)

P-25 Bartholomew County

Determining who will design Templates?

*Option #1- pay vendor to design the Templates with the guarantee they will work correctly.

*Option #2 – Have the trained officers develop Templates- very time consuming and no guarantee they will work- this may take an extended amount of time and requires a lot of patience. IF this does not work, then it is possible a vendor will have to build them anyway.

Determine who will Flash the radios?

Option #1- have trained personnel flash Templates in radios. Saves $50.00 per radio.

3. If any of the above occurs radio cost approx. $300.004. Flashing takes approximately 30-60 mins. Per radio
