trunking

I have been reading the various posts regarding programing trunked systems into the Pro-97 but have not been able to find an answer to my question. Sorry in advance if I have overlooked the answer in a different post. I am attempting to program an EDACS group and the database lists 2 different...

I have (3)- BCT-8's that I have owned for 5-6 years and after about that length of time, they all have developed an audio problem when trunking...and ONLY when trunking. The best way I can describe it is like a radio that is tuned just a bit 'off-frequency'...or when you are hearing a Single...

I got a RadioShack Pro-528 triple trunking 1000 channel scanner some time ago and thought I had it porogramed. I got the PC cable and Scancat Lite with mr. Scanner .RSD databases. I chose what i wanted from the database and programmed it to my scanner, but the trunking systems aren't working...

So, I have had the radioshack pro-164 scanner for almost a week. When I look up the city I am trying to program (Bend, Oregon) it gives a list of "primary control frequencies" and then some additional ones (that are not listed as "secondary control"). Should I program all the frequencies into...

So, I have had the radioshack pro-164 scanner for almost a week. I have finally figured out how to understand the frequencies and talkgroups. When I look up the city I am trying to program (Bend, Oregon) it gives a list of "primary control frequencies" and then some additional ones. Should I...

I am in the market for a scanner however technology has come very far since I bought my first. When I lived in PA it was simple. All area fire/ems/police communicated on low band, VHF and UHF so a simple programable scanner was sufficient. I now live and work in Fairfax County, VA and...

Hey, I am trying to decide between a PSR-100 or a Bear BC72XLT. I have heard mixed reviews of the BC72XLT. I am starting into and I only need a basic scanner. The local frequencies aren't trunking. There isn't any 700 or 800 mhz frequencies. I am only looking to spend about $150 on one.

I have a pro 164 and i would like to trunk more than one system in the same bank. Both systems are motorola and i am using win 97. Is this humanly possible??

I've never programmed trunked systems before but if someone could help me out with the fleet table offset base, step stuff it would be greatly appreciated. Here is a link to the fcc listing for the system ULS License - Industrial/Business Pool, Trunked License - WPWS529 - CENTRAL...

I have a bcd396xt scanner. I live in the los angeles california county of glendale. I recently downloaded several trunking sites from freescan san bernardino county riverside county regional fire protection i have downloaded other conventional systems with no problems. I also downloaded a...

hello everyone. i recently downloaded a trunking system from radio reference by way of freescan. once you download the system to a window it displays the word primary on the left side of this window for san bernardino ca system 9 and simulcast for several other system from san bernardino. once i...

I have a trunking Spectra trunk mount that I just received and I am trying to wipe out the old frequencies and system that it came with. I know a little about these but obviously not enough because I can remove the conv. modes but the trunking system, well I just cant figure out how to get rid...

Yes I am very new to scanning. I recently purchased a Pro 97 and am trying to program a local frequency. The primary control channels are 854.61250c 856.73750c 859.73750c. I have programmed these in and changed the mode to MO. On one of the control channels, I see the MOT: Sys-4210 95%. Every so...

Ok, so I just bought a pro-164 and I'm new to scanning and I had a few questions. 1. I figured out how to add the trunked frequencies, and how to add the talkgroups, but some of the frequencies when I tune into them, give this strange tone and it says something like MOT: Control xx%, I'm...

Hello, I have a GRE PSR 300 Great scanner, but I have tried following the directions in the manual and cannot seem to program it correctly. Ok I am a dummy, I am in eastern Iowa and would try to program anything for Scott county or Iowa city. I would be programming in bank 3. How do I do it. I...

Heard today from Stag Hill site Mahwah at the NY line voice channel 471.1250 digital cc 472.325 The voice channel is a patch with the County Police channel 1 No system id on the control channel. Perhaps it's not programmed yet. Keep an eye out for more to come.:cool::D

Hello. I am using a Pro-164 and am attempting to monitor a trunked Motorola Type-II Smartnet system. I think I have everything programmed properly (I use WIN97). Still, I am not hearing any talk... therefore I would like to know if it is my programming or do they just have nothing to say? I...

I have a Uniden 264t, a Pro-97, and a Pro-433, but none of them get the kind of reception that I would like no matter what type of antenna I use. I am only monitoring the 800Mhz Motorola trunking band (Fort Worth, Texas) and was wondering if anybody knew of a different scanner or commercial...

Hi, I was listening to a riveting manhunt in south Madison WI with my 164 attached to AC power. The channel was a MOT II City of Madison / Dane County trunk. I unplugged and stuffed the unit in my pocket but heard some keypad beeps from my fat fingers. Took it out of my pocket and hit Scan...
