Alaska P-25

[hardfacer]

Heading up north and need to program the ALMR (Alaska Land Mobile Radio) in My BCD996t. Does anyone know if the following bandplans have to be inputed, iknow the other p-25 systems do not require this using uniden scanners.
(taken from RR database}
The ALMR system, being a VHF APCO-25 system, has no default frequency assignments available for use in scanners. The system in fact appears to use 8 sets of channel assignments of the 16 possible sets under the APCO-25 specification. As the Pro-96 receiver can be set, with suitable software, for up to 6 sets under the multi-table setting, the following list has been found to work with the majority of the sites listed here on the database. All settings have a Base Freq: 136.000 and use a Step: 12.5kHz The other table settings are as follows:CH Lo CH Hi Offset
8192 12287 8192
20480 24575 20480
24576 28671 24576
28672 32767 28672
32768 36863 32768
36864 40959 36864
*** All sites with numbers in the 100s, 200s, and 300s have been confirmed with scanners and software ***

I dont have a 996 but last summer I used a 396 to monitor ALMR. I did not have to enter the bandplans, the radio did the work by itself. I entered numerous sites but also entered 154.6500 to 156.2400 and did a control channel search and tracked the system that way.
