not receiving my conventional channels

[sleepingiant5]

i just used the arc 500 software to program my grepsr500 scanner for the trunking frequencies.i uploaded the conventional frequencies tha i had imputed in the night before,did an import from radioreference and uploaded everything back to the unit. now it scans the bell fleetnet system and i am receiving data,but i'm not getting anything from my conventional frequencies. any ideas?

If they are in different scan lists you have to make sure both or all lists are enabled.

Just wondering if you over wrote the conv channels with the trunk channels when you imported the trunk chans. If not check what Steve says above

thanks much.
when i downloaded back from the scanner to the software they were not there.so i reentered them and changed the scan list to numbers not used in the trunking part.seems to be working now.will keep my fingers crossed. thanks again

Take a close look at the file you are sending to the scanner from the pc. You may have priority set on for trunking, or lockout set for conventionals. I know with my 500 in my area the trunking seems to over power the conventionals. Better to sort them out into another scanlist.
