Does anyone know if Putnam county plans on dispatching fire/ems on vhf or uhf or stay on low band when the new p25 system comes online

Are there plans to have it have it rebroadcast on the p25 like how rockland county did on their p25 system

Because I use my Unication pagers 98% of the time, the paging talk group is the one thing I sorta wish Westchester had. I either have to choose to monitor the conventional (Dispatch) stuff or monitor the trunked systems. Orange Co rebroadcasts paging on their trunked system as well. I will say though that Westchester breaking up the paging freqs by Battalions is great because you can eliminate hearing calls out of your area. All in all, these counties have designed cool systems and I hope it works out well in Putnam.
