I tried to get a local pager 6 years ago and that was what they told me. The cost for satellite pager was way too high. Seems some hospitals still use satellite based paging gear, us govt, etc. But local companies with towers couldn’t compete with cell phone based text messaging and Nextel Push to Talk affordably and closed up shop. Usually your own towers and gear is pretty expensive compared to what you can get off the shelf from a provider.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">I have customer’s replacing Motorola VHF two-way radios with 7925s using Singlewire’s Push to Talk.
