Interesting problem

[TXFirefighter112]

I am using a Radio-shack Pro-94 trying to monitor Richardson, TX FD. When I manually select frequencies I can hear the data channel and whatever voice communications may be coming across them.

When I go to trunking mode though, the scanner pops up the IDs on the screen while people are talking (I guess) but no sound plays.

Kind of a dumb question, but it certainly fits the problem:

Is the Pro95 programmed to mute itself when tracking EDACS systems?

Is it a 94 or 95? I don't know anything about the PRO-94 but I do have a PRO-95.
It sounds like either you don't have the correct LCN order or you have the bank in closed mode.

In chosen bank, start first channel at 01 rather then channel 00.

It is a 95...I'll try moving all the freqs up one slot to start at 01. I didnt even think that would be a problem.

Don't just move them up a slot - match their LCN's. So if there is no LCN07, then don't put anything in slot 07.

I just moved them up and it works. The LCN is 1-7 with no gaps.
