Need help programming a DMR trunked system on a 436HP & 996P2

[rja1]

Trying to program this system: New Hampshire Electric Cooperative Trunking System, Various, Multi-State - Scanner Frequencies
on my 996P2 & 436HP. I downloaded the system from RR into both scanners, I see CC's come up, but that's about it. I realize that there is not much traffic on utilities unless there is a Wx event, but I haven't heard a thing in weeks of monitoring 24/7. Oh, and yes, both scanners have the DMR update. Thanks for your help!

Do you see that the LCN's and LSN's, and color codes are programmed for each frequency?

I see LCN's & Color Codes.......What are LSN's? This is my first time trying to program a DMR system.

The scanners will not make any use of the LSN values. Only the LCN figures and color codes for the site (or sites, if programming more than one) are needed. The LSN, Logical Slot Number, is used in the database here, and is part of the information gathered when using one of the SDR dongles and software for the SDRs such as DSD Plus. See this thread for someone dealing with a similar issue.

Make sure that you have the correct LCN entered, and are using the correct color code for each site. You might also try running the LCN Finder (under the Analyze menu link) on your 436HP. The 996P2 does not have that feature.
