I did several searches for this, but was unable to find any reference to this in either the forums, or the wiki. If it's already been addressed, sorry about that. I just wanted to share the info if it was new.
On
this Uniden Webpage, there is a link on the right side to a
Trunked Radio and Scanner Tutorial .
It's written really well, and is really easy to understand. There is a really good visual example of how to find frequencies and TGIDs in the RRDB, and near the end, it references the Forums as a good place for information. Very awesome! There is also a really good explanation about the difference between "System Type and System Voice", and outlines what can and can't be heard by various scanner types.
If it's not already there, a link to this might be appropriate in the
Trunking Wiki. I know there are tons of references to "How the hell do trunking system work" articles, but one more can't hurt, right?
Again, Apologies if this is old news, but it says
(new!) next to the link, and I couldn't find anything with a search.
Peace & happy scanning!
