Pro 2096 P25 question

[RLNOLT]

I have a Pro 2096 and got Lancaster County's new P25 programmed in a bank. Problem is it shows the bank name and not the talk group name when it receives communications. I used software from scanner master to program it. I know that there is some problems with the system yet. Any advice? Thanks in advance

Which Lancaster County? There's four of them in the US.

For P25 on the Pro 2096 make sure to set the bank AND the control channels to MO. There's no need to enter the voice channels.

It is in Pa. They have some garbled sounds some times. I have the voice frequencies set to FM mode and bank and control on MO

Delete the voice frequencies. All the scanner needs to know is the control channels and it automatically does the rest.

I noticed there's a lot of encrypted talkgroups on that system (the ones with an E in the mode column in our database page) so maybe that's the garbled sounds you're hearing. Put in just the ones with D instead.

Ok I put a control channel in North empty bank on MOT. I get talk group ID'S that come up and the frequency changes but no audio. I don't know what I am doing wrong.

Do the frequencies that pop up temporarily on the screen agree with the voice channel frequencies in the database?

They do not. What pops up is about 406.700 and some other 406.xxx. Lancaster is using 476 and 477....

In that case, it appears your custom table is incorrect.

Check the other thread for the table I posted there. The original poster of that thread never followed up with results, so I don't know if he fixed it or gave up.

I followed the directions in the other post. Changed the offset and skip to 0 and 12.5 and entered 476.xx.as base for the site. Still bring up 406.xxx frequencies. Shows MOT 3004 ID and others.

You might get better answers in the PA forum.
