As I stated in the "Hickory EDACS clarification" post, I'm a newbie and have a 396xt. I've programmed some VIPER & HP stuff (and am amazed at the distance I'm hearing transmissions), but can't get Asheville to ring my bell (Motorola Type II SmartNet analog). I've sat downtown on two occasions with another scanner & monitored their high-band dispatch, and tried every way I know to listen on 800 when they get a call. I can't hear dispatch or the TG's. I've switched from DEC to HEX & back, manually selected while they were yakking, installed all their 800 frequencies in addition to the control & two alternates, removed them, & re-installed them. I switched from "digital" to "analog" & "NFM" to "FM." This RR note, dated 3/20 appears on their page: "Pending change to ASTRO 4.1 Format, and switch to an 3 site simulcast SmartZone." Suggestions?
