[TrunkCom] Detroit TRS

[JEFFREY MICHAEL KENYON]

Well, for whatever system I heard I have heard your Ann Arbor system
clearer then what I could hear.  I don't know about you, but I have the
feeling that they will need to add more sites to that system to make it
work in a city like that.  Bell Isle will be for the east and down town,
and then the 9999 will be the west then?  Does anyone know if more tower
locations will be added?  
	I think that Detroit pD or FD had some base stations at Ford
Hospital, which is down town, but I don't know if the new trunked system
will have anything there.ycy
