It’s National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week and LA-RICS personnel befittingly attended LASD’s Dispatcher of the Year ceremony at the Sheriff’s Communication Center. We appreciate all the hard work dispatchers do! 🎧🚨📻

We are excited to announce the first LA-RICS sub-system, the "Narrowband Mobile Data Network" (NMDN), successfully went live last Thursday, and we cutover users to the system!! NMDN is now being used by the Los Angeles County Fire Department (LACoFD) #LARICS
LACoFD is primarily using the NMDN system to dispatch emergency call alerts and incident information from their CAD to all the fire stations and vehicles. #LARICS

LA-RICS thanks the state of CA, and Assemblyman Tom Lackey w/ Senator Maria Elena Durazo, for providing $18.6 million to our project. Your support will help us complete a radio system that will cover 4,000+sq miles w/58 sites. We are currently in testing/optimization! #LARICS
Two LA-RICS radio testers testing radios. And once again, everything works beautifully, meaning we are one step closer to going live! But with so many successful tests under our belt, is that even a surprise at this point? #LARICS #UniversalCity #WeMakeThisLookEasy
It takes a little extra planning and a little extra effort, but we do what we can to keep California air easy to breathe. Clean radio waves with clean solar power. It ain’t easy, but we love being green. #KermitTheFrogJoke #WeHaveBackupGeneratorsForCloudyDays #LARICS

It gets a little cold up on those mountains. But rain or shine, we’ll keep plugging away, putting up those towers and bringing LA County the most reliable and far-reaching public safety radio communications it’s ever seen. #LARICS #TractorsInTheMist #ItsJustALittleWeather

It’s a new year. Our resolutions? To keep doing what we’ve always done: 1) Work hard; 2) Be kind; 3) Build a reliable, interoperable public safety radio network for all of LA County; 4) Look cool doing it. #HappyBelatedNewYear #LARICS #WhereMyShadesAt #TheFutureIsBright
To Pasadena PD, LASD, CHP, and the other agencies that helped keep the 2022 Rose Parade safe… Thank you. We’re so glad you agreed to help us test our system during this event. We’re looking forward to next year! #RoseParade #PasadenaPD #LASD #CHP #BestDay #PrettyBlooms

Super nope. We’ll stick to creating the safest, most reliable interoperable radio system for multi-agency first responders. This? This is just bananas. #LARICS #TheLARICS #SoFiStadium #DanglingByATether #NoThanks #GiveThoseGuysARaise #AccidentalPun
This is just ONE of the walls of cameras being monitored by #SoFiStadium security. Add our interoperable, multi-agency capable talk groups, and this is going to be one of the best coordinated #SuperBowl games ever. #EyesEverywhere #CantSneakUpOnUs

We at #LARICS are no strangers to cherry pickers. Maintaining and building those radio towers can take us up pretty high. But this guy does it with a chainsaw. Respect. #TreeTrimming #GameRecognizesGame #OnlyThingBetterThanOneChainsawIsTwoChainsaws

Imagine taking this walk to a packed stadium of cheering fans. We might not get the adoring crowds chanting our name, but we’re proud to be in the back, quietly making game day at #SoFiStadium a safe one. #LARICS #TheLARICS #AlmostDroppedThePhone #Butterfingers

The old radio tower, still functioning, is on the right. The new radio tower, belonging to LA-RICS, is on the left. We’re building bigger. We’re building better. #theLARICS #AnotherOneOnTheMap #PrettyGraffiti

But anyway, here are some baby skunks fed by a local near one of our radio towers. You’re welcome. #theLARICS #TooCute #HereKittyKitty

We built a radio tower near an old missile silo. Because how cool is that? Also, because it was the best vantage point for promoting interoperable frequencies. But missile silo! #theLARICS #StairsToNowhere #MakePeaceNotWar #Kaboom

Radio Check. Turns out some of our new radio towers are covering these tranquil hills near Palmdale. Country road, take me home. #theLARICS #RadioCheck #AlmostHeaven #JohnDenverIsMyCopilot

Wires upon wires upon wires. I know it looks complex, but this seeming tangle of technology is running smoothly, easily, and reliably. It’s the magic behind the LA-RICS system. #theLARICS #MakesTheRadiosWork #WiresLikeSpaghetti #Yum?

Further testing and refinement over this weekend confirmed that Torrance PD will be able to connect to the LA-RICS system. This is great news for the 2022 Super Bowl, which is going to end up being a multi-agency endeavor! #theLARICS #AreYouReadyForSomeFootball #VeryYes
Tower construction! LA-RICS puts another one on the map. The more we build, the further our reach. And what a reach it is. #theLARICS #DontLookDown
