If you were Registered and logged in, you could reply and use other advanced thread options There has been many Alarm Dealers throughout North American concerned
about the AMPS network being discontinued as of Feb 2008 or sooner. I
understand that Rogers Wireless has already begun the termination
process (www.canasa.org for details). Many have been looking for an
alternative solution. I feel I have your answer...I am the Director of
Business Deevelopment for a company called Tela-Link Communications. We
are the very first wireless communication center that not only provides
a transmitter that installs into ANY new or used security panel but, we
own our UHF radio network, know as StraNet Radio Communications.
Tela-Link was developed over 11 years in Canada and now is expanding
throughout North America. This network is completely dedicated to the
alarm industry and we ourselves (Tela-Link) expand and own the network
that transmitts event and/or detailed reports directly to your
monitoring station without the use of a Cellular Clearing House. We are
the "New Solution for Wireless Alarm Transmission". I welcome you to
research into our company at www.tela-link.com our contact me directly
at 1-888-207-7827 ext. 238. I am positive it will be the best decesion
you make. Our Product, Our Network, Our Pricing, state-of-the-art in
everyway. You will be impressed!
