new to scanning need help programming business

[fishing508]

i am new to programming scanners and having trouble scanning business frequency. i have programmed my county's police and ems frequencies on my scanner and they were easy but i am having some trouble programming a business in my area. I have a radio shack pro 96 and live in georgia in the chatham county area. i would like to program imperial sugar into my scanner. https://radioreference.com/apps/db/?...perial%20Sugar this has the listed frequencies for imperial sugar. i programmed them into my scanner today by pressing man then pgm typed the frequency then pressed enter
i did that for the following frequencies 464.625 469.625 451.575 456.575 452.05 461.9875 466.9875 i also changed the mode to motorola. Any help would greatly be appreciated as i am new to the scanning.

The frequencies you listed appear to be convenional, not part of a trunked system (MOtorola). The code MO on the linked page refers to the usage of the frequency.

It's been years since I briefly owned a '96', so I don't recall the proper code. Where did the 451 and 452 frequencies come from?

Both of Imperial Sugar's systems use MOTOTRBO. (MOTOTRBO is a Motorola digital radio product marketed primarily to business/industrial users)

No scanner can monitor MOTOTRBO by itself but it can be monitored with DSD.

Click on their call sign or IMPERIAL SUGAR and note the emission designators of 7K60FXE which denotes MOTOTRBO.
