All of use who have a scanner mobile have listened to the police and if they were running a speed trap, we had a rough idea of where they were at. Prior to Trunking, you could monitor the direct frequency or if on a repeater you could mintor the input then looking at the signal strength indication, you through experience knew how far away the speed trap was. So now with a trunking system that has been established, how do we determine where they are at? We are not breaking any ham rules, we are not using a radio to break any laws, but can you monitor an input and how do you determine what input they are using when the system being used has 12 or more frequencies? I have a 396xt, .
