The meeting just ended.
1) Nextel and others are proposing to relocate ALL of 800mhz public
safety band.

2) Your scanners will be fine, but your freq. database will be
worthless.

3) I suspect many agencies will get new P-25 equipment since some of
their old equipment
may not handle the relocation.

4) This is based around APCO's P-39

5) Yep P-36 is  CAD
