Which statement describes the Jacksonville lifeguards' radio setup?

• A. The city of Jacksonville lifeguards use a differently programmed radio system
• B. Nassau County fire/rescue
• C. FRCC
• D. St John's County

Answer: (A)

Radio setups are unique to each agency because they depend on the frequencies, channels, and talk groups that a department buys and programs into its radios. For Jacksonville lifeguards, having a differently programmed radio system means their portable and base radios are tuned to a specific city-wide plan that fits their beach operations, towers, and EMS coordination. This kind of dedicated programming shapes who they can communicate with and how quickly they can respond across the different beach zones.

The other options name different agencies rather than describe how Jacksonville’s radios are configured, so they don’t explain the setup itself.
