[TrunkCom] monitoring I-calls on EDACS systems with the 250D

Fri, 19 Dec 2003 00:17:09 -0600

Right, .0 for EDACS then?  I don't know either, but it would seem to me that
on different systems there would be more then one I-call that could take
place at a time.  When I trained on the XTS-3000 portables for our system
here in Grosse Pointe Farms we had one activity where we all had to I-call
one another, and there were multiple I-calls going on at once.  Too bad that
it was in 2001 and it was pre-BC250D/785D!  I guess back around taht time I
should have tried to persuade my city officials to go analogue at first and
then push digital later.
    Just as a side note, I'm using a different E-mail program so that it
doesn't blare out my full name in all caps when I send a list or anyone
E-mails, and mean time I'm going to try and work with my ISP and change that
program, which is Pine so it won't blare out my full name like that.   I'm
still curious though about multiple I-calls and how that would look on
radios capable of monitoring and tracking these.
