WEST MELBOURNE, Fla., July 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- RELM Wireless Corporation (Amex: RWC - News) announced the introduction of a new high-specification, enhanced APCO Project 25 digital portable radio for field command and coordination functions, the BK Radio DPH-CMD. Designed to meet the needs of public safety and disaster response professionals, the DPH-CMD is capable of field communications using 500 channels, with 25 user groups of 20 channels per group and meets rigid MIL-STD 810 C/D/E military specifications.

"This latest addition to RELM's APCO Project 25 offerings expands and strengthens our digital radio product line," noted RELM President and CEO David Storey. Derived from the widely popular analog GPH-CMD, the P25 digital product was engineered to meet the specific requirements of a long-time RELM customer. We believe the product's features and functionality also appeal to a broad range of other customers. Responding to customer needs and problems leads to smarter solutions we can then share with all our customers. Like all our professional-grade BK Radio products, the DPH-CMD digital portable radio offers distinct advantages, including superior audio clarity, ease of use and programming, longer battery life, and lower cost than comparable competitive products."

About APCO Project 25 (P25)

APCO Project 25 (P25), which requires interoperability among compliant equipment regardless of the manufacturer, was established by the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials and is approved by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. The shift towards interoperability has gained momentum as a result of the recent communications failures during the Oklahoma City bombings, 9/11 attacks and most recently Hurricane Katrina. RELM was one of the first manufacturers to develop P25-compliant technology.
