- Description
- Modification #4 is to reiterate the questions/answers in Modification #3, which does not seem to have posted. The solicitation is also being taken off hold, and the closing date is being extended one more time, through August 18, 2009, at 1:00pm EDT, as the last Modification was unviewable by some or all vendors. The questions/answers from Modification #3 are reposted below: Question #1: The radio model you are requesting includes the battery and antenna. Do you want thirty-five extra antennae, or just the ones that come with the radio? Answer: We would like to be quoted for a spare antenna for each radio (a total of thirty-five extra. Question #2: In your description of the required Vertex radio model, you make reference to a "dual battery" as part of the radio kit. The radio, of course, will be available with the specified Li-Ion battery. What do you mean by "dual battery?" Answer: We would like to order an extra Li-Ion battery per requested radio. So rather than "dual" battery, it should read "spare" battery. Question #3: The FBI has obtained additional information on the radios. Requested items in this RFQ MUST have: - Encryption Key Selection via the Portable Radio's Keypad. This feature will give the user the capability to select, on a per channel basis via the radio DTMP keypad, any of up to sixteen encryption keys that have been pre-loaded into the radio. - Unencrypted Channel Alert Tone. This feature will enable user to activate, on a per channel basis, an audible alert tone that will sound when the PTT button is depressed in "clear mode" (i.e. unencrypted channel) to alert the user that his transmission is unencrypted. In addition, the LED on the radio front panel will change in color. - Increased Alias Table Capacity. This feature will increase the capacity of the current alias table from fifty-six names or tags to more than two hundred-fifty names or tags. - Zeroize Feature. Using a sequence of keys on the radio keypad, user will be able to remove all encryption keys on a unit without the use of a computer, thus allowing easy, in-the-field transfer of unit to the other user unauthorized to use encryption. - Radio-to-Radio Clone Function. Will allow transfer of the "Encryption Keys Index." While the keys themselves will not transfer during cloning for security purposes, the "pointers" showing which keys apply to what channels will transfer. Once keys are loaded using a KVL-3000, the keys will become active per channel. Question #4: This RFQ is no longer on hold, and has been extended through 08/18/2009 at 1:00pm EDT. Please submit quotes to the Contracting Officer, Ms. Theresa Powell, via email at Theresa.Powell@ic.fbi.gov. If you have previously submitted a quote and would like to replace the original with an updated quote, please specify this in your email. Thank you.
