I have the frequencies programmed into my GRE psr 800 but I am not hearing any transmissions. Has anyone any suggestions ?
What frequencies?
What antenna are you using?
Where is the antenna located?
How is the antenna connected to the scanner?
Just to be sure, you have 482.4125 NAC366? Do you have it in P25 mode?
Lowell channel 2 is full time encryption, so you won't hear anything on that.
The scanner has the mode set to FM
I am not sure how to change it to P25
I was in and around Lowell last week with a TRX-1 and simply pulled up the area from the US database on the memory card and it worked great.

I have downloaded the frequencies from the psr 800 software library.
The scanner screen shows:
Lowell PD
FM 482.412500
NAC 366
Lowell PD
FM 482.412500
CTCSS 146.2
Lowell PD2
FM 484.950000
NAC 366
sigh....Massachusetts has no unincorporated areas, so I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt that he is actually in the place that he says he is.Not if he put in the wrong freqs, or has a bad antenna setup and lives out of town.

It's only 14.5 square miles: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lowell,_Massachusetts.
I'll agree on the frequencies, but since he indicated a PSR 800, I would also deduce that it is the stock antenna connected directly to the radio. I know it can be hooked up as a base, but I don't think this is the case here.
