WSP has two portables - Who does number two belong to?

(Maybe someone can cart the photo over here I had no luck - or maybe a PI'er lurks here and can supply the photo)

So someone ID the radios please

Look like non-keypad versions of the Moto XTS5000 (model 2). SPD or DSS. The XTS-5000 seems to be standard issue for most feds nowadays.

Edit: They could be XTS-2500 Model 2's.

Also, who remembers WSP upper-echelon-types carrying 800mhz radios during WTO, and running simplex? Though they were using EF Johnson models, IIRC.

Sorry I was late and running to get the shots.

nice photos!

around the Seattle Rep Theatre this morning during his talk at every entrence there were bomb sniffing radios. A box the size of 3 gallon trash can, with a large 7"x3" green backlite LCD screen. on top was a 14" antenna with a center choke. they were chained to nearby trees like traffic counters next to the road.
