[TrunkCom] Nextel Digital system

[MILLINNIUMCLEAN@aol.com]

 So right now the Nextel system is being used by cell phone service, but it 
might move into the public safety band. So you cannot monitor Nextel, and the 
scanners in the future will not be able to monitor a Nextel system if it goes 
into the public safety band. I remember in the early 90s, people said there 
is no way a trunked system could be monitored. Scanning as a hobby as we know 
would be gone. Then the same companies that made the trunked systems sold its 
secrets to the scanner companies. I think this whole trunked system service 
is just a cat and mouse game being played between use the scanner listeners 
and the companies that build these systems, its all about money. They build a 
new system that cannot be monitored, then later on they sell the secrets of 
the system to the companies that build scanners (for a pretty penny ), then a 
new scanner comes out that can monitor it, then all of us hobbyist run out to 
buy it. Then something else will come out. It keep's going and going. When 
will it end? It's just a cat and mouse game, so both the radio companies and 
scanner companies can make money, and thats it. There will probably be a 
scanner out soon the will monitor a Nextel system. Then a new system will 
come out that can't be monitored. Then a scanner will come out that can 
monitor it and it will keep going on like that, its big money.
