Well, with all of the complaints you are hearing and seeing about EDACS be
it analogue or digital I think it would be quite a while before something
like that  comes out.  I have heard about other systems and not  just the
Lansing School District's system, but I guess that Clinton County,
Michigan's system which uses AEGIS for police dispatch with the rest being
analogue has some issues, but the county officials have been quiet about
how well it  it is working, livonia, Michigan that also uses AEGIS that isn't
APCO-25  compliant has had some issues, and there is talk of that system
going down soon as well.  In fact, I think that some people have already
moved off of it now because that system with all of the talk groups that
are listed ought to be always busy with activity, but it doesn't seem to
be, and there are a few more that I can  think of.  Exactly how many
Pro-voice systems are there besides what Florida has, and San Antonio,
Texas?
