It is always wise only ask those questions where you have a good idea what the answer will be.

Good for them. Now that the FCC has granted the County’s waiver to use 8 Industrial/Business VHF frequencies to go along with the 20 or so VHF channels they already had, some of which are held in reserve for legacy systems or as backup in case the new P25-based system doesn’t work out for them as expected given coverage challenges, Flathead County, Montana must be the safest county in North America. New York City should be so lucky to have such spectrum assets at its disposal.
