When I program CDERN 460.400 (110.9 PL) into my Bearcat BC898T scanner it automatically comes up in the NFM mode. What should I do.

Should I leave it in as shown above or should I program it in and change the mode to FM instead of NFM.

Please help

You want it as NFM not wide band FM, just leave it be.

Does CDERN get much use?
I need to get a new scanner

I have heard some activity on CDERN within the past week. I do not hear it a lot but I would say at least once per week or so.

I more question. My handheld scanner will only let me put in CDERN as follows.

460.400 (110.9 PL) FM mode. I cannot select NFM on my handheld scanner will I still receive CDERN on my handheld being that I can only program it in using the FM mode and not the NFM mode.

Thanks for any help

They usually do a radio test/roll call around (give or take an hour) 9am each morning.
