Firehouse’s Peter Matthews talks with Don Griffis, L3Harris Corporation's principal product manager about the latest on NFPA 1802 and the new L3Harris XL Extreme portable radio.

NFPA 1802, the standard on firefighter radios, was updated this year based on recommendations from firefighter injury and LODD reports for radio and speaker microphones.
