Well so far a "google" news/website searches reveal the following:
125 Locations to get new system between now & 2008.
CURRENT PLANNED LOCATIONS:
Current Press Release Show the Following Locations:
Fort McNair, DC
Walter Reed Medical Center, DC
Eglin AFB, FL
Fort Detrick, MD
Fort Meade, MD

Fort Hamilton, Brooklyn, NYC, NY (will this be expanded to include Coast
Guard actitivies)
Defense Distribution Center, Mechanicsburg, PA
Naval Support Activity, Hampden PA
Raven Rock (Site R, Alternate Joint Communications Center), Waynesboro, PA
The Pentagon, VA
Fort Belvoir, VA
Fort AP Hill, VA
Fort Myer, VA
POTENTIAL LOCATIONS:
In my opinion here's some example of potential other areas. I would think
that where there is a large concentration of bases than those areas will be
brought on board first. Also another unknown is whether the US Coast Guard
will become part of the various systems. I would assume there at least
would be an access point at area control centers/command posts.
San Diego, CA Area:
San Diego NSB, North Island NAS, SD Naval Medical Center, Miramar MCAS, etc.
Atlanta GA area:
Dobbins ARB, Ft Gillem, Atlanta NAS, Ft Benning, Robins AFB, Albany MCLB,
Ft Stewart, Ft Gordon.
Hampton/Norfolk/Virginia Beach, VA area:
Langley AFB, Ft Monore, Ft Eustis, Little Creek NAB, Ft Story, Ocna NAS, Dam
Neck, Norfolk NAS, etc.
Seattle, WA area:
McChord AFB, Ft Lewis, Brementon NS, Whidbey Island NAS
Switching Capabilty into network (crossband operation):
I'd guess that in the Washington DC area there will be the capability to
switch other public safety agencies into the system as necessary, perhaps
even in a NFM to P25 bridge As well as other areas away from the Washington
DC area.
RADIO FREQUENCIES ASSIGNMENTS:
Larry Van Horn's "Milcom" column (Monitoring Times, December 2004 edition)
Lists 11 frequency pairs (output/input) that will give perhaps an idea of
what the band plan might look like.
INTERFERENCE:
I guess what I'm wondering is whether it's the control channel (is there
one?) or the actual P25 voice transmissions that actually interfere with the
garage door openers OR both?? Anyone know??
