Montgomery Metro Communications Cooperative District
Elmore County has begun migrating to the Montgomery Metro Communications Cooperative District P25 system. Elmore County Sheriff, Eclectic Police, Wetumpka Police, Tallassee Police, and Coosada Police have switched to the new system. All Elmore County law enforcement dispatch talkgroups on MMCCD are encrypted. Elmore County Fire, Eclectic Fire/EMS, Millbrook Fire, Coosada Fire, and Tallassee Fire currently employ a mix of VHF and MMCCD. Wetumpka Fire has mostly switched to MMCCD, but traffic is still simulcasted on VHF. Fire and EMS talkgroups are in the clear.
Elmore County is served by a stand-alone MMCCD site located atop Bald Knob in Wetumpka, as well as a two-site simulcast with sites located in Kowaliga (providing coverage in the northern part of the county near Eclectic and Lake Martin) and on Fire Tower Road (providing enhanced coverage to the eastern side of the county, such as Tallassee), respectively.
