Summary: The OIT Help Desk can help you with repairs of your UCI 800 MHz radio.

      Customer must deliver handheld radios to OIT at 5201 California Avenue, Suite #150 (University Research Park). The battery, antenna, and dust cover should be retained by the customer, unless it is part of the trouble being reported.
  2. OIT will contact our contracted service provider for pick up and repair of broken Motorola radio equipment.

  3. If a programming change is requested to solve the trouble you are reporting, OIT will coordinate the reprogramming of the radio. Depending on the problem, you may be recharged. Individual radios are $35.00; multiple radios are $60.00 per hour.
  4. When a repaired radio is returned to OIT by Motorola, the department will be notified that the radio is ready for pick up. You MUST sign the repair ticket when picking up repaired radio equipment.
