Message from the CEO
June 2012

Many of you use two-way radios and Nextel (Sprint / Nextel) Push-to-Talk cellular telephones. I want to bring to your attention recent announcements that Sprint / Nextel has made which may affect your decision to keep using this technology. Please see the news articles below for more information.

In 1997 Advanced Electronics sold our 800 MHz. channels to Nextel in order for Nextel to expand their service coverage and user capacity. Since then Advanced Electronics has invested in and developed a new communications network that utilizes Motorola MotoTRBO Digital mobile and handheld radios. We offer:

• Wide area coverage in Los Angeles
• One-to-one communications
• One-to-many communications
• Group call
• Emergency alerting
• GPS location
• Geo fencing
• Text messaging

Please see our website for more information about our VHF Trunking System, with rates as low as $19.95 per month.

Your patronage is truly appreciated and as a subscriber to our monthly e-newsletter we want to say thank you. Here is a special offer for e-newsletter subscribers only:

Advanced Electronics is an A+ reseller of Motorola batteries. Our every day battery pricing is low because of our high sales volume. We look forward to hearing from you, and we thank you for your continued business. Sincerely, Bob Conrey

"Sprint's Nextel network gets its death date: June 30, 2013"
By David Goldman May 29, 2012: 4:02 PM ET

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) - The Nextel chapter of Sprint's disastrous 2005 merger is just a year away from coming to a close. Let's call it a mercy killing.

Sprint Nextel said Tuesday that it plans to shut down the Nextel network as early as June 30, 2013. Sprint has long talked about its intention to wind down Nextel, but this is the first time it has offered up a precise end date.
