ARC500: Program P25 Conventional w/ No NAC

[tvengr]

How should a conventional P25 frequency be programmed in ARC500 when no NAC is given? SQ Mode P25 and SQ Code blank? Thanks!

Is setting nac/code to search an option in that software?

 

[tvengr]

Yes, it is.

Leave blank or use S for search.

Should I set SQ Mode to Search or None and leave SQ Code blank? I noticed that if I upload a file to a scanner with SQ Mode set to P25 and SQ Code left blank, NAC changes to 000 when I download to Win500 to convert a file. 000 is a valid NAC.

For those that are not aware, $F7E is the P25 equivalent of CSQ.

Some scanners follow the TIA P25 spec and this works, some do not.
