Pro-2096 Question

Magnetsteve · #1 (**permalink**) 10-27-2009, 01:14 PM

Is it possible for this scanner to display radio ID's? Such as an MDC 1200 ID or Radio ID from a radio on a trunking system? (apco-25 9600 trunking I think). If so, how do I set it up? Thanks

Not from the front panel.
But Pro96com (free program) will show radio IDs and more.
Search this website to find out more.

Runs on a PC. Cable from radio to PC. Set radio to send the decoded P25 datastream down the cable.
PC displays what it sees in the data.

Program is free. You ought to have the cable to program the radio anyway.
Give it a try.
