... I can still here everbody else on the system with the freqs listed just not the fire dept. Thank you.
That seems strange. Perhaps its not really trunk-tracking, just scanning the freqs.
Anyway here are 4 things you can try. Make sure you use a new bank or delete everything from a bank before trying each thing.
First. If you have entered the Custom Band Plans previously suggested, try this set of freqs. These are the original freqs. rebanded, plus the 5 new freqs. that were licensed last October.
851.1250
851.4250
852.5500
852.8125
853.1000
856.7125
857.7125c
859.4875c
860.4875c
If it still doesn't work, try using the following band plans. These are used by the people
in Utah. Their state-wide system has many sites with various configurations of control
channels and these 3 configurations work there.
It is possible that the Salem system is somehow different from those in Utah. Let's hope not.
"NORMAL" CONTROL CHANNEL
Lo Chan Hi Chan Offset Base Freq Step
PLAN 1 0 439 0 851.012500 25.000
PLAN 2 440 559 440 851.025000 25.000
The control channel in some systems may somehow be different. If the above "NORMAL"
plans do not work, try entering them as below.
"ODD" CONTROL CHANNEL
Lo Chan Hi Chan Offset Base Freq Step
PLAN 1 440 559 440 851.02500 25.000
PLAN 2 0 439 0 851.01250 25.000
If the above two configurations do not work, try the following THREE Custom Band Plans.
Custom range 1 Lo base freq 851.3125 Hi base freq 854.0000 Offset 560 Spacing 12.5
Custom range 2 Lo base freq 851.0125 Hi base freq 861.9875 Offset 0 Spacing 25
Custom range 3 Lo base freq 851.0250 hi base freq 854.0000 Offset 440 Spacing 25
