Thanks Gary, so what will it cost Mondo Ham to go out and buy a VHF P25 radio - portable - battery and charger antenna and speaker/mic new or used and the stuff to program it with?

Yes you are wrong. Motorola does not nor did they ever own the APCO Project 25 standard. Many multiband excitation technologies commonly used today are the property of Digital Voice System Inc. (DVSI). They license Motorola (and other manufactures) to use the designs in their P25 radio systems. P25 amateur repeaters are slowing popping up here and there but mostly by LMR professionals who are also amateurs and have access to surplus gear so I agree with you that it will be some time before it becomes mainstream.
