The state of solid state.
This talk about future communications technology is all well and good, but what about the things we already have? What's going on with current technology? And if things are going to change, what will the transition be like? For an overview, JEMS talked to a group of EMS communications experts: Bruce Jackson, president of EMSAT: Advanced Technology for EMS, in the Los Angeles area; Mark Johnson, chief of Alaska's EMS Section, chairman of the National Association of State EMS Directors' Communications Committee; and Steven Buckley, communications and facilities planning manager of the Warner Group, a public safety communications consulting company in Woodland Hills, Calif. The following summarizes their views on current issues and their projections for the near future.
