About Us
From Idaho's Capitol City of Boise north to the mighty Salmon, the "River of No Return," then west across Hell's Canyon, the deepest canyon in North America, on to the beautiful valley of Baker City, Oregon and south to the high desert on the Nevada border, Gem State Communications' area of operation encompasses some of the most rugged, remote and beautiful country in the lower 48 states. For over 25 years we have partnered with Motorola to provide two-way radio sales, service, installation and maintenance to the commercial, agricultural, healthcare, public safety and government industries in this vast area. We aligned ourselves with Motorola products and services because we consider them to be the very best in the industry. Our affiliation with Motorola includes designations as:
- Motorola Service Station (MSS) Status
- Full Line Dealer
- Radius Dealer
- Manufacturer's Representative
- Federal Government Representative
- System Select Dealer
- Canopy Dealer
We are honored to be a multi-year member of the Pinnacle Club, Motorola's most prestigious dealer award based on sales goals. In 2005, Motorola introduced their Motostar Excellence Award to recognize dealers who achieve certain business markers during the year. The objective of the Excellence program is to support a culture that provides clear and consistent wins for our customers, our business and Motorola. We are proud to have achieved Motostar designation in its first year and will continue to work toward Motostar recognition so we can pass the benefits of this program on to our customers.

PUBLIC SAFETY AND HOMELAND SECURITY: Public safety communication support has always been a primary focus for us. We are in a constant cycle of maintaining, installing and upgrading the dispatch centers and other emergency service equipment in and around the valley. Since 2001, grant money has allowed several local public safety entities to upgrade their antiquated dispatch facilities or update/enhance existing radio and other wireless communications systems. We have been closely involved in the communication network and facility upgrades of Ada County Sheriff, Canyon County Sheriff, Baker County, the City of Ontario, Boise County, Washington County and Adams County to name a few.
