[TrunkCom] private calls and telephone tupe radios on 900 MHz trunked radio system

Sat, 12 Apr 2003 15:53:20 -0400 (EDT)

Okay,t he other thing I was going to mention is that the go a head tone
and otnes used on the buses differ form the regular go a head tone that
Motorola has.  As I said before on regular talk groups they are pretty
busy.  Also, when they were on one 800 MHz conventionally a dispatcher
would tell you good morning and good even ng at 8:00 in the morning and
5:00 in the afternoon.  They could do this with the new system,but they do
not.
	Does anyone know though what this kind of radio is that the
drivers would be using, and how to make a private ccll monitorable with
the 250d?
