The staff had a problem in receiving the signals at times and no clarity in the messages.
With the digital wireless sets the staff will get the messages loud and clear and take action accordingly.
The Hoysalas patrolling across the city are also minimizing their response time to the maximum 9 minutes .
The control room gets 850 to 900 calls on an average per day and the staff ensure that the hoysala patrolling in the closest rage should reach the spot within the stipulated 7.30 minutes to maximum 9 minutes.
Since they had experiencing the problem in communicating with the analog wireless sets at time, they have been replaced with the digital for better communication.
It may be recalled that City police commissioner B Dayananda had patrolled the city in a Hoysala vehicle and interacted with the staff. He made some observations on the improvement of Hoysala patrolling vehicles and staff.
