This facility is the <br />operational location for fifteen radio <br />repeaters operating in the land mobile two- <br />way and paging services. <br /> <br />Since 1981, SMR Netwo[k has operated <br />multi-channel 800 Mhz t~unked: repeater <br />systems. At the present time, SMR <br />Netwo[k owns and' operates radio systems <br />on fifty-four communication sites in the <br />Northwest. SMR Network radio repeater <br />systems supply dispatch and mobile <br />telephone service to over five thousand <br />customer radio units. SMR Network's <br />reputatio, n for reliability is such that in two <br />applications, its trunked repeater systems <br />support public safety communications. <br />SMR Network is.the thirte.enth largest radio <br />system operator n the Umted States. ,~-. <br /> <br />SMR Net.work, employ..s a managerial, <br />administrative and technical staff of twenty <br />persons. SMR Network employees have <br />construction management, ~ radio <br />engineering and administra!ion expertise in <br />developme.n.t and. operation of shared <br />communication faolities. · ' <br /> <br />Projected Site Utilization <br /> <br />SMR Network will transfer the systems it <br />currently operates on Halls Ridge to the <br />proposed f.acility; this consists of a <br />microwave hnk and two trunked repeater <br />channels and associated computer <br />controllers. By October 1991, SMR <br />Network will operate five additional <br />trunked repeaters and monitoring <br />equipment at the site. SMR Network <br />projects that at completion, operators of five <br />additional repeater stations will request <br />facility access. Presently, there are <br />approximately thirty communication <br />systems of all types operating on the Halls <br />Ridge Communication Facility <br /> <br /> <br />
