I'm afraid I'm lost.. When I go to "Edit Channel Options" I don't have an "Audio Type" option..
I have: Edit Name - Edit TGID - Set Number Tag - Set Priority - Set Alert - Set Record - Set Lockout - Volume Offset - Copy Channel - Delete Channel - New Channel..
I'm assuming I missed something basic during the setup.. But without a clue..
To Edit Channel Options press MENU. At 'Program System' press E/.
At 'Select System' scroll to the system where the channel is and press E/.
Scroll to 'Edit Group' and press E/.
Scroll to the Group that has the channel you want to edit and press E/.
Scroll to 'Edit Channel' press E/.
At 'Select Channel' scroll to the channel you want to edit and press E/.
You can also press E/yes when the channel is displayed in scan mode. (Press .(No) to cancel storing a CTCSS/DCS tone or NAC code if asked).
Scroll to the options below and press E/. Press Scan/Srch to return to scanning when done with editing.
Set Audio Type (conventional/Motorola only) choose 'Digital Only' or 'Analog Only' according to the signal type. Select 'All' if this channel might contain both digital and analog signals.
Notes: If you are sure the channel is analog, set the channel to 'Analog Only'. This will prevent the 'P25 Waiting Time' for the conventional system from loosing the first part of the transmission up to the wait time you set there. You will not see CTCSS/DCS/NAC tones for conventional channels in the display (mode 2) with the 'Audio Type' set to 'All'.
Scroll to 'Set Audio Type' and press E/.
Scroll to one of three options and press E/.
All - The scanner automatically determines whether the audio is analog or digital.
Digital Only - The scanner will receive the channel only if it is carrying APCO 25 digital audio.
At 'P25 NAC Option' (conventional only) scroll to 1 of 2 options and press E/.
