You may have seen my other post regarding my new TYT TH-8600 and using RT Systems to program it. That's a separate conversation and I appreciate everyone's replies. This conversation has to do with TYT's programming software they package with their radios. I've had no issues programming about...

Hi everyone, I am on the security team of a church in Central Arkansas. We have two buildings that are roughly 300 - 400 yards apart (door to door). The distance for transmissions can often be further as a security team member could be transmitting from anywhere in the building. As a result...

Article in today's Morning News of Northwest Arkansas has the details. They are going to Kenwood Nexedge. The article is behind a paywall, but the gist is they are switching in the next 1.5 years after remodeling the dispatch center. There is a contradictory statement in the article regarding...

I'm still fairly new to the scanner scene, and I love it!!! I'm asking for a little help to find some "Hidden" TGIDs for the Lonoke County SO on my PRO~106 Scanner. The RadioReference database shows the following for LCSO. 21201 ~ LCSO Multi-talk 21203 ~ Lonoke Countywide 21204 ~ LCSO Dispatch...
