[TrunkCom] regular talk groups and private calls andconfigurations

Sun Feb 13 17:33:19 EST 2005

That sounds logical, but with a curb to curb type set up threally should
be able to do that to see where others are and make service more
efficient.  For a few weeks there I wasn't really clear as to what they
were using.  I know taht they have fleet calls that I think just dispatch
can handle, but what I'm trying to figure out is if they are using a
combination of ragular talk groups or I-calls or both.  In looking at the
talk group list there are a lot of groups that just say shuttle, but I'll
have to see what they are using next week.
