If anyone out there could help me find the correct frequenciesfor the Massachusetts State Police for Zone 5. I am looking for A1-A6. The Codes I have, my Scanner will not take them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What type of scanner do you have? Where are you located (approx)? This info will make it easier for people to help you.

Did you check our database? The link is in the blue toolbar under the logo. Did you check the Scan New England wiki (link below) which has quite a lot of this information...

What scanner are you using? What software, if any? What do you not understand? Please be more specific in your questions so folks can help you 73 Mike

I have a Uniden BearCat Scanner. No software. The Codes from the above link, I tried programing them into my scanner. But it keeps saying Error.

Try here in the RR Database for the Mass State PD they are trunked. Which bearcat do you own can you provide the model.

I suspect that Sparky is not familiar with trunking, and/or is not using a trunking scanner. Let's start with understanding what trunking is - read the 'tutorial article' (just click in the phrase found in the article below) of:

Trunked Radio Systems - The RadioReference Wiki

(Anything in blue and/or underlined is a link)

The tutorial is an excellent beginner's description of trunking by our own UPMan The article is in PDF format 73 Mike
