[Scan-DC] Arlington PD?

[Doug K.]

Just to clarify, Arlington's 800-MHz system is a Motorola Type II hybrid - 
if I understand this correctly, that means some units are Type I and some 
are Type II - also if I understand correctly, the PD is still on the Type I 
and are analog - I think the FD is Type II, but are they analog or digital?

I'm still kind of weak on some of this trunking stuff... took me awhile to 
get my BC796 programmed for Arlington FD, and their signal is basically too 
weak for me to receive here in Gaithersburg with the radio in the house and 
using the antenna on the back of it...

PS, also, unrelated, Mtgy County Fire has just dispatched the Rapid 
Intervention assignment for 9801 Bethesda Church Road Apt 304 in Damascus...
