[FedCom] Troops Deploy to Border Areas

[John]

You need help and you trust a bunch of strangers coming to your aid based on what they're hearing over the radio, really? Should they come armed with rifles and shotguns or will handguns suffice? Should they speed and run red lights as they respond? 

Off-topic penalty freq: 168.4625 p25 encrypted, federal interop freq, used around San Francisco the other day.

The state is rolling out a 700mhz P25 and hopefully we will be able to scan it. So far it is open but once it is on throughout the state it may be encrypted. We are a small rural department so citizens coming to help us sometimes could be a good thing.
