Alameda County Rebanding and Uniden BC796D

[Les_H]

I've been away from scanning for a few years and have come back to learn about rebanding. Can't get my Uniden BC796D to work with the Alameda County system (East Alameda County, Dublin).

I updated to the latest firmware for the BC796D, which supports rebanding.

I'm entering the standard rebanding table from Uniden, but the scanner doesn't seem to recognize this as a trunked system, and incorrectly thinks it's scanning a conventional system.

Is there something unusual about the Alameda County system so that the standard rebanding table doesn't work? What are the parameters for Alameda County that I can enter in the BC796D?

Below is the standard Uniden rebanding table that I'm using:

Thanks for your help. I've been working on this for 2 days with no progress.

For standard rebanded systems, you need to set Band Plan 1 and Band Plan 2 as:

Band Plan Base Freq (Lower) Base Freq (Upper) Offset Polarity Spacing
1 851.0250MHz 854.0000MHz 440 + 25 kHz
2 851.0125MHz 868.9875MHz 0 + 25 kHz

I may have it working now, using the standard offsets.

I programmed the control channels in first this time.

Also, I entered the channel frequencies through the trunked key - this scanner may have separate memories for conventional channels and trunked channels and before I may have gotten the channels into the conventional memories by accident.

Thanks.
