396T Help

[mpdonala]

Is it possable to get a alpha tag to show up in place of the freq. I would rather have a tower name than a tower freq. Thanks in advance for any help. Mark

Assuming you programmed in the alpha tag when creating the system / group / frequency (or talkgroup), while scanning, press Hold, then Func + 5, then Hold again to resume scanning. Func + 5 in Hold mode toggles between showing the frequency / talkgroup id and alpha tag.

In context, he is asking about the trunked frequency. The correct answer is "no."

But wouldn't that be a good idea UPman? Throw that idea in your "features to add in future models" Site alaising would be a awesum option.

How did you get the tower alisas to show? I see no where in the software/radio to enter this inforamtion in the 996T.

Put one radio site per scanner site and name the scanner site to match the radio site. The 996 displays the Site alpha tag when scanning.
