[TheList] Government RFP's & Tenders for P25 are out for all emergency services.

I have an Icom IC-R30 handheld, it does P25 and NXDN and things, but not DMR which is a shame. 

But I picked it up when I went to Dayton Hamvention a few years ago, so not sure of the postage charge to NZ for it :( 
But it was not tooo badly priced.
