pro 433

[tommyandamanda21]

anyone here have one that is having problems getting talk groups???

i have 2 pro 97's and they pick up fine on talk groups..

some people say if i am getting talk groups all the time on the 97's i should be on the 433 and i am not.

i'm sure its not set up wrong, i had some one else on here help me set it up.

I thought the scanner was messed up so i took it back and exchanged it and this one does the same thing.

I believe your trying to listen to an EDACS system are the channels programmed into the proper channel numbers in the proper order.
This was posted to the wrong thread I finally realized.

No, shouldn't be needed..

 

[tommyandamanda21]

ok, here is an update, i went to one of the main towers here and parked and still know talk groups except for every now and the one might pop in...

Since the 433 is aUniden built scanner the radio should be set to control channel scan only.So program up the channels in order/out of order.Select in the trunking settings in ARC433 under motorola 800/900 with status bit on and control channel scan.This works much better.I have this set for a type 1 system and having great results, except that I had to find out what fleet map to use.This is not a issue for type 2 systems.
