well I've heard that the new communication millage for washtenaw county passed. havent heard when they plan on starting though.

I was not comparing Motorola to M/A com because quite frankly, Motorola blows them out of the water. If washtenaw has not done their homework(ie, tower locations, range etc..) then it will be 2-4 years before this project gets off the ground. However, if they have done their homework then it should not take too long for it to get up and running and get all the paperwork submitted and get their frequencies. This radio system(MPSCS) is a TOP PRIORITY for the county communications. This has and needs to happen ASAP. There have been 13 failures with the current 800 Analong system this year alone and it is only getting worse. So I look for things to start shaping up within the year.
