I-call

[poltergeisty]

I have to put this to rest once and for all. I heard that you can hear I-call on a 9600 system as well as a 3600 system and then I heard that you can't hear it on a 9600 system. I own a 296d it has I-call is that only for 3600 or both? I guss I should ask uniden but figure I well try here first. I have programed the wild card for all I-call's however I don't hear anything on the 9600 system here. They may or may not use it I don't know? I live in Co. :?

Well i know where i live before they went to provoice i was able to hear i calls on the 9600 and i have a 250d with the card,so i would assume you would be able to pick it up.First program the freq then the ids and look at the book to do the i calls but on mine i just have to go down the menu and hit i call and thats that.

No radio on the market today can pick up I-Calls while trunking a 9600 baud system. The Uniden models can pick up I-Calls on 3600.

I-Call

Hello everyone
FYI. In Colorado, the Region 7 Plan (Mutual Aid Channels) includes I-Call, ITac-1 through ITac-4, and S-Tac-5. Our agency recently switched from an analog trunked 800 mhz system to a APCO-25 Digital trunked 800 mhz system (9600 baud). We have these I-Call and Tac channels in both systems. I believe that these are programmed in the conventional analog mode, so you should be able to receive them on the 3600 & 9600 baud systems (provided they are programmed correctly). This link:

gives some more info on the mutual aid channels and the frequencies. Hope this is helpful.

I-CALLS are direct to direct conversasions on the trunked radio system. Kinda like a cell phone.

You are refering to the NPSPAC Nationwide 800 MHz Mutual Aid Channels and are off the trunked system when in use. Totally different!
