I seriously doubt it.  For one thing, it is icom only.  Colby Kansas had 
a system up and they just gave it to another group in the state, no 
usage.  I had no interest at all, 500 for a radio and not accessible at 
all.  You have to be a rocket scientist just to call cq on a swpecific 
repeater.  Not for me at all.
