As a ran out of job by nextel moto radio tech,the problems generated can be a simple harmonic,but ,neverthless!most departments operate vhf analog systems,and cannot justify digital systems...they suck!! and are very expensive!!and I as a wisp know that if i were causing harmful interference to my local vol/paid department,my customers would understand me shutting down the computer ...if it meant saving a life...and this is real world stuff!!!Just remember one thing,,a wisp needs networking pro's...i am not one..but i am a real world rf guy,and the most important thing in the world is that the two-tone dispatch reaches our crew in time to save my house...or my family......Please take seriously any possible rf concerns,as they may affect the life of someone you may/may not know....Jason

But I digress. Lots of volunteer fire departments out there are doing tremendous jobs, espically in the rural world where they cannot afford the money to have paid people. Saving property, saving lives. Judging from your comment about being on digital yet, I presume you think that is the "thing". NFPA, as well as many other fire service groups are warning NOT to go digital yet, at least for fireground purposes at a minimum, due to the issues with digital vocoders. Have a nice day.
