Any thoughts??

I dunno? Without a pre-alert or tone out for incoming calls like there currently is on the minitors, I can foresee some possible problems with this type of system going into service, such as Douglas County, where firefighters could be miles from the nearest station and to the incident itself. I can see a system like this going to a more populated area such as Portland, Salem, but in a rural area like Douglas county, I just can't see it working in a countywide operation.
