I see now and hear now Minot PD is digital it sound ok sometimes but when you have one repeater it doesn't work good you need many repeater like ward county system 6 repeater system. Ward County will make the switch to digital but the question is how are they going to page Fire and EMS over digital? You can't No company and even Motorola do not make a digital pager. I hope Minot FD does not go digital there has been many Firefighter killed over there digital radio in the USA. Just look on youtube Orlando FD had to go back to analog becuase it was hard to talk in a fire. Also the funny thing is I heard there is a mandate to switch to digital No there is not a mandate, but a mandate to be narrowband by 2013 for example Frequency 155.80000 is not narrowband Frequency 155.81825 is narrowband.
