[FADCA] Power Point Show now on FADCA website

[bud Thompson]

Philip-

What VHF LAN frequency are you using in GVL?  What  UHF frequencies 
are planned for Gainesville  to Keystone and Gainesville to Ocala 
9.6kb backbones?

My (quick) observation is that your PSAP office site is 20 miles from 
Keystone Hts and not more than 40 from Ocala. With the 100 ft (agl?) 
antenna height I'd think you will make  Keystone easily and perhaps 
Ocala on 9.6kb UHF.

How large an ARES group do you have locally that will be supporting 
EMCOMMs?
