Ten Years of TETRA – and Norway’s back in the spotlight

Ten Years of TETRA –  and Norway’s back in the spotlight

The TETRA market is ten years old. The first commercial TETRA contract was signed in September 1996 for the supply of a Motorola system to Gardermoen Airport in Oslo. Almost exactly ten years later, the Norwegian TETRA Forum (also celebrating its 10 year anniversary) hosted a Scandinavian TETRA Seminar, attended by some 200 delegates from 12 countries.

The spotlight is back on Norway as the decision is due to be made on the preferred consortium to build NØDNETT, the new nationwide digital radio network system to be used by the Norwegian public safety authorities.
