Joining Cobb County Regional Radio System

By the end of 2020, Polk County is going to be joining the Cobb County Regional Radio System, which currently consist of Cobb County, Bartow County, Forsyth County, and Douglas County. Cherokee County is also looking to join the system. This will allow Polk County to communicate with all those counties via a microwave link in Bartow County. The microwave system will be tested in September 2020, and the full configuration will be tested in the last week of October, or first of November. This will be a state of the art simulcast system, which will include 4 antennas, and a 5th if needed after testing. The locations of the new 4 antennas will be:

1 Polk County Water Authority Property (1341 Taylorsville Road, Taylorsville, GA) (34.075920, -85.042249)

2 City of Rockmart's Water Tower, Self-Supporting Mono-pole (Same tower location as current Polk County System) (33.978459, -85.013682)

3 Georgia/Alabama State Line, I have found a FCC Antenna Structure Registration for this location, 611 Rocky Hollow Rd, (34-04-40.4 N 085-24-30.8 W) (https://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsApp/AsrSearch/asrRegistration.jsp?regKey=2713612)

4 Cedartown Tower (Beside Government Complex) - This tower is going to be at the existing tower site. (6.5 km east of Cedartown, just off Hwy. 278)

This system is going to be used by the counties EMS, Fire Department, Law Enforcement, School Police, Animal Control, School buses, and public works --

In the coming months, a lot more information will be released, such as frequencies, and talkgroup programming. According to different county officials, the system will be encrypted, but we are unsure about the details of that as of now.
