MCSO West on BCT 15????

[lrh270]

OK, I need to go back to scanner 101......or maybe remedial....

ALL I really care about is getting MCSO West Patrol off of White Tanks when I'm down that way in the west valley....

I set a couple of BCT 15s up for a Motorola Type II Smartzone site JUST LIKE the SNACC system here in Vegas, which works fine for me....

All I get is an occasional irritating loud buzz on MCSO West, never any voice.... It does this with all the sites and freqs entered, and it does the same thing with just the White Tanks control channels entered.....it does it with 20 talkgroups entered or with 3.....but always on TG 43120....

What am I missing??? Use voice freqs only (no control channels)??? Enter all of them as conventional freqs on a conventional system (that sounds really irritating)??

HELP!!!

The BCT15 will not do P25, you won't be able to monitor any MCSO talkgroups except for those listed as analog in the database without a digital capable scanner.

Hi, I noticed you live in Mesa. I have the new Pro-106 and live in Gilbert. I am having a hard time picking up any of the Mesa Police dispatch channels on simulcast D control frequencies for their talkgroup. You have any luck hearing them?

Yep receiving them just fine.
