Lewiston, New York-A new emergency communications tower was built and put into use in Lewiston. The new tower is part of an effort to strengthen emergency communications throughout Niagara County.
Lewiston Police Chief Frank Previte (Frank Previte) said: "This much-needed addition demonstrates the commitment to the safety of police officers and first responders and emphasizes the partnership between municipalities to achieve this goal."
The tower is located behind the Lewiston Town Highway Garage and is the beginning of an initiative to strengthen emergency communications throughout Niagara County. The new site will increase the coverage of the digital radio system.
Funds from the New York State Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Services Statewide Interoperable Communications Grants were used to build the tower. The property where the tower is located is leased to Niagara County from the Town of Lewiston.
The radio tower system will be used by emergency agencies including police, fire and EMS. The construction of the tower started earlier this year. When making important and quick decisions, everyone must be consistent.
A new tower in Niagara Town is expected to be put into use in the next few months. The other towers in Wilsontown, Ryefield Town and Somerset Town are preparing to be built before the end of 2021.

CTCSS function on walkie-talkies covers a frequency range from 67.0Hz to 250.3Hz. When transmitting in analog sub-tone mode, it transmits by continuously superimposing low-frequency, inaudible signals onto the carrier frequency, ensuring that only receivers receiving the same frequency can interpret the signal. This achieves anti-interference capabilities or allows the receiver to reject signals from other third parties.
