Hi all, I seem to having problems with the Ashtabula County MARCS system.
I run a Bearcat BC296D radio and I live in Cherry Valley. I use ARC250 software to setup my radio.
This site's database says the 2 channels to monitor are 867.0750 and 867.6125.
While I can hear some things, every conversation sounds broken, garbled and only a few words are legible.
I have loaded those 2 channels into a bank by themselves with the following settings...
Trunk - on
Delay time - 2
Beep alert - off
PL/DPL - none
Lock Out - off
Attenuator - off
Mode - NFM
Step 12.5
Trunk type - Motorola Type 2 - 800 MHz
I-call - on
End Code - detect
Status bit - on
There is a setting that asks about the control channel - I can select Plan 1,2,3 or 4. I have Off selected.
Does anyone have a good setup rnning for a BC296D/ 250 that can tell me what their settings are or what I may be doing wrong?
Thanks so much,
TomJD
