[ScanIndiana] Emergency dispatch chief replaced

[Ken Bandy]

If you're talking about MECA adding RF pairs to their systems, according to
RadioReference, system one currently has 27 RF channels.  As I recall, a
type II system can only go to 28.  System two could grow a little, the last
I knew it only had 14.

Have fun with your new 396!

Ken,

Nextel only has to pay to move frequencies and reprogram radios, not 
completely upgrade a users system.

I don't think MECA will gain anything out of rebanding other then maybe 
adding a few channels, which they don't have to pay for anyhow..

The 35 million will pay for new radios, dispatch consoles,  pagers, and I 
thought I read about a new tower somewhere as well..

I think you are correct in saying the upgrade probally won't happen until 
rebanding.
