See if this helps. Easier to Read Pro-651/652/106/197 - WS1040/1065 - PSR 500/600 Digital Scanner Manual

No, that doesn't help.That page is filled with more stuff than the manual and confuses me more. I'm just looking to put 7 frequencies in my scanner that's it.

program "frequencies"

from the list you gave, that is a digital trunking system (KMCO MARRS?). you need to enter it as a trunking system with the correct site frequencies.

The KSMO MARRS system is listed in the frequency directory (under MO)

The Wiki has several articles on trunking, you need to understand the system in order to enter it correctly.

you will need the site frequencies in addition to the group list you have,

That is one of my hiccups i came into also, i cant find the frequencies for the ones i want

i think i found these


851.050c 851.325c 851.600c 851.825 851.8625c 852.050 852.075 852.175 852.225 852.4125
852.4375 852.5875 852.6625 852.7375 852.875 852.9625 852.9875 853.150 853.2375 853.4875
853.7375 854.1375 854.5875 854.7125 855.6625 856.1625

so those are the ones i need to use?

I suspect your want to program the frequencies for this system (as a trunk system):

https://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?sid=6916

at least with 1 or more of the Jackson County sites listed.

 

[troymail]

BTW - the 7 "talkgroups" in your initial post are not frequencies - they are talkgroups for the trunk system above.

 

[blue4x4ford]

i have the frequencies that i want to upload to my scanner, i am just looking for step by step instructions for "dummies"

851.050 851.1375 851.275 851.325 851.4875 851.600 851.8625 852.050
852.075 852.175 852.225 852.4125 852.4375 852.5875 852.6625 852.7375
852.875 852.9625 852.9875 853.150 853.2375 853.4875 853.7375 854.1375
854.5875 854.7125 855.6625 856.1625

Follow steps 1-20, set it as p25 Auto and you only need program in the control frequencies -
851.050 851.325 851.600 851.8625
https://wiki.radioreference.com/index.php/Programming_Shortcut_PSR-500/600_RS_Pro-106/197

All the pro 106,197,651,652, Ws1040,1065, Psr 500,600 radios program the same way.

Thank you for your response! Your advice got me further than anyone's lol. so i followed your instructions, by using the control frequencies you listed and got them programmed into my scanner. but i have once again come into a problem. there are some encrypted ones i hear so when i click the l/out button to silence them (if that's what the button even does) and the screen stops scanning and says "nothing enabled" "pri" and i cant click scan again. did i not save it right? i have repeated the same steps again but i get stopped every time i try to silence the encrypted channels. again, thank you for your advice it really helped me figure this whole thing out.

I would like to add more frequencies now that i get that part, do i just click new and do it over but to a new scan list? and where would i find those freqencies, i had several listed but you only said i needed about four of them how do i tell which ones i really need?

You probably have accidently engage priority scan and the only thing that where set to pri where that talkgroup you locked out.

To solve it push that pri button so that the pri text, or P symbol depending of scanner model, dissapears from the display.
