[TrunkCom] Control Frequency Only Mode, 700 Megacycles, MOTO, EDACS, LTR

[Jeff Kenyon]

Some of hte new P-25 federal systems are howing up in the 380-400 MHz
range, and receivers I have had for htis band have always defaulted to AM
for this portion of he band, and my understanding up until now it was
military and I am unsure of how they were using it before they started
putting P-25 on there.  It will be interesting if ProVoice makes it to 700
MHz or OpenSky, but I had heard that even the conventional mutual aide
freqs that will show up in that area will be P-25 conventional.
