I am not new to digital trunk scanning, but am new to simulcast systems. I have been scanniong trunked system now for about 11/2-2yrs.
I have looked up the Wikipedia entry on simulcast susyems, and I think I have a fair understanding of what they are. Probably a good start?
I try to scan like any other system I have successfully scanned, and it doesn't seem to work. I am using a Uniden BCD396XT, with an outside antenna up approximatly 45' feet on a tower.
My location: Sandusky, Erie County, Ohio
System to be scanned/trunked: Parma (Ohio)/Medina County (Ohio)/Ottawa County (Ohio)
I originaly want to scan/trunk the Ottawa County System (One county to west of me. Sandusky is probably 20ish or so miles from were I believe the Ottawa County transmitter to be in Port Clinton (Ohio).
Now that I see Medina County is on this system, I would also have need to scan them in my travels. I knew they were going to be going digital trunked; however, i dedn't know how and when.
The Parma Sustem is 65 or so miles east of Sandusky. Know it well, have relations in that area. Ottawa County and Medina Counties are simulcast on the Parma System.
Thamk you for your time and or assistance to my quest,
