Just for everyone on the list, the idea of higher channels on a trunked
system being less used only applies to LTR systems, where everyone is
assigned a 'home channel', and you only go to another channel if that's
in use. And I think he said his system is MPT-1327, so it works more
like EDACS and Smartnet. On those systems, each voice channel should
have nearly equal usage, with the control channel running 24/7, except
MPT has the option of cycling the CC on and off to allow other traffic
on a shared frequency, at the expense of access time.
Not a significant issue, just thought I'd mention it.
I do agree with your assesment of his problems. The only other
suggestion I might make would be to push for channels that aren't so
evenly spaced. In other words, make sure the spacing between channels is
NOT related to the spacing from tx to rx. But it's probably too late for
that.
