Cool man thanks for the info! I'm still figuring the whole BM system out. Sometimes I can get it to work and Sometimes it's like I have the wrong info. Also I'm trying to program a couple of the local schools where my mom and wife work but even with the info on here I can't hear anything! Are they encrypted?
Twinche1986, DMR does have a learning curve but if you're at least getting it to work part of the time, you're not far from an 'ah-ha' moment or two. Any specific issues/questions, I don't mind to try and help on here.
As for GCS comms, several of the local schools have gone to DMR on UHF but it appears to be a simple base/handheld simplex setup so unless you're within a few miles of a location you're not likely to hear them. No repeater means just line of sight (less loss due to structures, trees, interference, etc)--and of course with the caveat of your scanner being DMR capable and/or if using a HT to monitor that CC, TG, & TS are all correct. See below link...looks like you're a new user so be sure to click on each license entry under the schools heading for details of number of units/power/location for each user.
