trunking

Hello! I am 1 month away from getting my hopefully General Ticket and have no radio gear at all. Portable, Mobile and looking for SW receiver as well. Will be using these at a Science Museum here in Durango as well. Let me know what you have to trade please. Contact by email. I would like to...

The SDS100 is a true I/Q scanner. This is the FIRST scanner to incorporate software defined radio (SDR) technology to provide incredible digital performance in even the most challenging RF environment. The SDS100's digital performance is better than any other scanner especially in both simulcast...

Hello reader, I am trying to set up my SW1040 to scan Utah County's system, and am having no luck, I'm attempting to scan "Fire 1,2,3,and 4" but it wont work, here's what I've done so far 1. Changed from EDACS to DEC 2. Made new system for utah county and added Utah County Simulcast (turned...

Has anyone had issues with trunked systems after the most recent database update? It appears when on site hold, the unit will no longer stay on the primary control channel thus nothing is heard unless a transmission occurs on a frequency the SDS100 was currently tuned to.

Currently using a Pro-82 to listen to Fire Rescue (453 - 460 MHz). Considering getting a programmed HT1250 UHF to get better reception. I want something to listen to Miami-Dade Police. Specifically Site 102 on the system. Was thinking of getting a BCD996P2 to listen at home, and a BCD436HP to...

I am a current student at Kennesaw State and was doing some looking in the RR database and found that KSU has an FCC license (Callsigns for FCC FRN: 0024065971 (Kennesaw State University)), I believe this is a DMR and I am using SDRTrunk as my trunking software and I was wondering how I can...

Hello, I have recetly purchased a WS1040, and have been able to get my local EDACS trunking stystem to work, but I went to add my ID's in to just pick up those channles but every time I do it says "Value/Format Err, Go Back?" Any assistance would be amazing!

I’m selling a Uniden BCD536HP desktop base unit. It’s still currently selling for over $500+ and has the DMR & NXDN upgrade kits installed, which adds another $150 value to it. Has the capability to enter a zip code and finds local channels/trunking from that. It does Phase-2 digital P25 so...

This thread is to highlight accurate and detailed information related to the latest Icom F7010 series P25 subscriber radios. All F7010 series radios are official DHS CAP certified as of October 2019. The following models are included in the F7010 series: IC-F7010S Limited Keypad VHF 136-174...

Question for those who are far more educated than I am. First Energy has an Etherstack P25 Phase I system on the air in New Jersey using QPSK modulation, with Motorola APX subscribers. One particular site was displaying a unique behavior on Unitrunker the night before last, with the peer list...

I believe this is the correct area to post this at, sorry if it isn't. So I have a Uniden scanner that I was thinking of programming a trunked system to. I don't have too much familiarity working with trunked systems, and I'm not really asking for help to program it either, I have questions...

Works fine, just replaced with WS-1098 and downsizing. Great starter unit for someone. Does NOT include antenna or power cord. $65 includes shipping.

Hi all, I have come across this system which over the years appears to have replaced some MPT1327 systems in the UK and Ireland. MPT1327 control channels would go silent, then be replaced by this. I have never found out what it is. It is active in the 165-170 MHz region in the UK, and...

I've previously been monitoring a P25 trunked network (NSW Government Radio Network Trunking System, NSW Statewide and ACT, Multi-State - Scanner Frequencies) in my state using the non-affiliate scan method. I.e. I created the actual trunked channels and placed them in a scan list linked to a...

I had the Butler County Police North and South bands on my scanner and they have been dead silent since either Thanksgiving or the day before. I had noticed quite a few "radio service radio checks" in the past several weeks leading up to this. I am still picking up Fire and EMS on their old...

It seems that when I do a zip code search (29420, for example), I get the local trunking (P800) talk-groups I'd expect with my distance setting, but all the sites statewide. I would have expected to only get the local sites, too. Since there are over 300 site freqs in the state on this system, I...

I am curious as to any possible rationales for PG&E choosing to deploy MPT1327 as their radio system instead of a Type II, LTR, or any other comparable analog trunking system. From what I understand, its one of the only MPT systems that exist in the U.S. and its a type that's mostly used outside...

I'm new to the scanning world. I'm a HAM and am looking into purchasing a digital trunking scanner. However I'm reading on this forum that there is increasingly less to listen to due to the shift to encrypted communication. Is it still worth it?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me. I'm trying to program a Motorola type II smartnet into my Radio Shack PRO 528 and I'm at a loss. The user manual isn't really clear on it and I have been trying for months and googling and I'm getting nowhere. PLEASE HELP...

Good afternoon. I'm newer to the scanner ownership and have a few questions. I've been listening to Broadcastify using multiple phone apps for about 3 or 4 years and decided it was time to bite the bullet and invest into a scanner. Before I actually understood anything about my state, I had put...
