Hawaii's police union has halted its media
campaign protesting the Honolulu Police
Department's 800 megahertz radio system
after meeting with city officials.

. . .

"The main thing is we don't have to wait
six months. The temporary cures will be on
line within four weeks."

. . .

"We identified all the shadow areas while
preparing for Y2K so if we have a natural
disaster, we'll strategically locate a
mobile car to pass on information," Uemura
added.

. . .

"We've gone to police departments throughout
the nation that have Johnsons as well as
Motorolas," Uemura said.

"And everyone of them has their share of
problems trying to adapt to this new
technology."
