[TrunkCom] Lower mainland EDACS system with live audio

[Jeff Kenyon]

Encrypting everything is just a power trip.  Before the P-25 capable 
scanners came out people would post on here and ohher lists that they had 
gotten a hold of APCO-25 radios, but I don't see much in the way of people 
doing AEGIS and ProVoice.  What luck have people had with getting these 
radios?
