As far as I can tell, it's a proprietary Motorola format designed for 
business and industrial use.
It should be legal on the ham bands, as long as it's not encrypted, so 
anyone should be able to buy a radio off the shelf, program it, and talk.
I don't know if there is any prohibition on the emission class, probably 
not. It should fall under an FSK format.
