[FedCom] Troops Deploy to Border Areas

[Roger Strohmeyer]

Interesting. I wonder if the BP simply issues the NG portables, vice
versa, or if the NG has a way to "patch me through to Dano" to the
BP's P-25 system?

IMHO It would make sense for places like Maricopa County to consider a
full blown P-25 system....too many "bad" prying ears listening for PD
movements.
