[Scan-DC] Fwd: Re: Encrypted P25 on Industrial/Business Pool freqs?

[Mike Rumberg]

WPsst… story on Nash’s donation of land to prevent development in Caledon
park which mentions he has a cattle operation.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/local/2001/08/04/heeding-the-call-of-the-wild-on-northern-neck/53d69f98-4008-4917-b293-32b6f1f6763a/

so, perhaps the system is for delivery drivers but not clear why they would
need such an expensive radio system rather than using much cheaper
cellphones.
