[TrunkCom] PSR500/600 scanners capable of tracking ESK systems?

[Jeff Kenyon]

THat is what I thought too, but there I guess is a ESK enabled version of
Etrunker out there  and the PSR500/600 will track these no problem.
	It  still won't do much good if you have a system that is or will
be going ProVoice.  I don't know what the status is with Denver, but
someone on another list said they were going full time ESK on July 3,
which is this Thursday.  The Denver system is analogue though, so I don't
know if this means soon ProVoice will take over or not full time.
