In the past few years, a lot of progress has been made on FirstNet. AT&T now has the FirstNet network up and running, and is working on expanding the network. We are sure there are still questions about coverage, capacity, hardening, and other important issues. Informational sessions have been scheduled to provide an opportunity to learn more about how FirstNet works for Public Safety uses, especially things like Apps, PTT services, Priority, and other issues.
Please join us at one of the three informational sessions here in Illinois. In addition to the Illinois Team, there will be representatives from the Federal FirstNet Authority, as well as representatives from AT&T's FirstNet group. They will all be available to answer your questions, and discuss topics that are important to you and your agency. A working lunch will be provided. Please see below for the locations of the sessions and how to RSVP.
