Approximately 1200 mobile units, 800 portables, 70 base station radios, the emergency alert system for schools, hospitals, and fire departments, the county microwave system (police and fire), and the DPF microwave link fall under the responsibility of Technical Services

This includes the installation and removal of two-way radios, warning lights and controls, scanners, sirens, cellular phones, and other electronics work for county owned vehicles, to reduce the need to hire outside contractors

All repairs have been completed down to the component level. As technology changes, this too is changing to a board level repair

The installation of a Microwave Backbone system has been completed and now connects the remote radio tower together. In addition to the tower sites it also connects the Mayville Office Complex to Jamestown City Hall, South County Office Building, Dunkirk City Hall and Dunkirk North County Office's. This reduces the Telephone and Computer inter-office connection costs. The next phase is the Statewide Wireless Network currently being installed by the State in Chautauqua and Erie Counties of New York as the first build out. The State will be utilizing some of the infrastructure we already have in place.
