Alright, I will try to keep this simple as it is really starting to frustrate me.

Equipment:
(1) RS-PRO2040 (Negative results)
(1) BC7 (Received CCFD on last night partial calls, without Toneouts)
(1) RS-PRO2054 (have not tested)

Issues:
Trying to receive County FD Dispatch (Overall Negative Results)

Antennas:
BC7: Rubber Ducky (In Living Room)
PRO2040: Double Load Scanner Antenna (RS used to sell) attached to a ground plate in the attic. Receiving VBPD and VBFD, no problem.

REQUEST:
1: Could someone in the local area assist me with setting these up correctly? I've got trunking capability on all of them. Just getting nothing but GARBLE on trunking.

2: Do I have the correct frequencies?
3: I'm also trying to identify the correct tones for the county as well.

Thank you in advance.

Based on the db it looks like they are conventional NFM. I do see one NXDN freq listed as district 1 but the rest show to be regular analog NFM.


Just verifying that’s what you have programmed? Based on the db they use a split tone so your scanner would need 100.0Hz on the rx CTCSS. Correct?

Thanks, everyone for the quick help.
Was just able to catch District 3 get toned out. It is the 155.145. Just as I figured it uses the triangle repeater antennas in the county to page everyone out.

Now I just need to gather the Tone freqs so I can catch those and plug those in.
