Well, probably because it's not actually the "Elkhart APCO 25" system. It's the State of Indiana SAFE-T system. They've been on there for at least a couple of years now. They still use some conventional freqs, but mostly the city (PD & FD) and county have moved. Even most of the neighboring small towns and other counties are on board with it, to one extent or another. That's the idea: interoperability and shared costs.
