Okay, now I'm going to pull my hair out. I don't understand how this scanner works? All I want to do it program Fire, Police, HP, and SO all on seperate banks so that one can choose which agency to listen to and not the whole system or all 4 agencies at once. Can anyone help? I am totally lost. Thanks...
Peter,
Just create a separate 'system' for each one (agency, like HP, or city, or any other combination). Then, assign each one a quick key so that you can turn any combination of systems (agencies) on or off. You've got 100 quick keys to use however you want. The quick keys take the place of the old bank system.
If you're trying to do the State DPS/Tulsa system, put the sites you want, or all of them, in the system, Then, set up your talkgroups to only be the OHP. Save the system, assigning it whatever quick key you want.
If you want to also do the same for Tulsa, for example, which is on the same system, then, after you've saved the first one, edit it to take out the highway patrol ID's, and then enter the Tulsa ID's you want. Once you're done editing, & assigned it a different quick key, then do a "save as" instead of "save". & give it a different name.
Repeat for any other agency on that same system, that you want to be able to scan separate from Tulsa & OHP.
For agencies using conventional frequencies, you can set up a separate system file for each agency, city, county, or any combination. Use the groups within the system to break out the departments.
If you'll give a little more detail of how you want to break them out, I might be able to throw you a file together a little later.
