Austin/Travis county PRO-106 issues

[davidysmael]

I setup my pro-106 when I bought it 4-5 years ago to work with the system in the area. For a while I was picking everything up fine, PD, FD, emergency. I stopped using it for a couple years and now I've gained interest in it again, but when I go back to listen to all my old talkgroups, they werent working. I hooked it back up to the scanner program and re-uploaded the talkgroups to my scanner because I thought that was the issue. Yet this hasnt solved anything. Does anyone have a working Pro-106 setup in the greater austin/travis county area with all the different frequencies? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Did you update the control channel frequencies? The system has rebanded in the last 2 years.

I did not do that. Mainly because I do not know how to. Could you please explain to me how it's done?

Compare the control freqs in your scanner to the ones on the website. They are now 15 MHz below where they used to be.

It pretty much worked as soon as I programmed it when I first got it, I forgot which program I used. Point is that I dont know how to check which frequency I am on or how to change it. I am using ARC500 currently and I noticed there is a reband function, but didnt know if thats what I needed. If you could point me in the right direction, that would be awesome. Thanks.
