That would be most interesting to know more about the system. Since Idaho is very mountainous they will need a large number of tower sites to effectively cover the entire state. I would also suspect that trees would also play a significant part in the deflection or reflection of signals.

IMHO, they should trunk the 453 and 460 MHz bands for better coverage. 800 MHz can have some serious coverage gaps between mountains.

I live in the Boise area, and I have the freqs. entered into my Pro-95. The ISP use the freqs. listed in the 460 range, and the tranportation department uses mostly freqs. listed in the 453 range. I don't think the trunked system listed for the state is in use by anyone at the moment, at least I haven't heard anyone on it. I heard they are seeking more funding for it.

Thunderbolt - I don't know if you got a reply, but those are University of Idaho freqs used for maintenance and operations.

Idaho also has a Yahoo Groups list - IdaScan@YahooGroups.com
