January 4 '08: Raytheon began a pilot program in early 2007 among six communities in the Quad City area in the Midwest. The Public Safety Communications Pilot program's goals were to increase interoperability, deliver broadband access for first responders to remote areas, and to introduce new services and applications which would enhance the response process.

Bill Iannacci, the director of Civil Communications Solutions said, "Our goal is to ensure first responders and public safety officials perform with improved speed and efficiency in an environment that provides them with greater efficiency."

Raytheon's pilot program executed with partnership from Nortel Government Solutions, New Era Wireless, NexPort Solutions Group, DropFire and EAGLE Project.
