Hi,
Question regarding programming a P25p2 system into my 325p2 scanner.
I am using ProScan to attempt to program a regional system into my scanner. However, it seems like the scanner will not take certain frequencies within the system. For example, the frequencies 770.20625 and 770.94375 translate into 770.2062 and 770.9437 when entered from both ProScan and directly on the radio. NO radio traffic is heard. Is there something I am missing that is preventing this from being programmed the right way?
Thanks

Band Defaults
Basically, this setting allows you change the ‘Auto’ values you can select while programming frequencies, searches, etc. to whatever you feel ‘Auto’ should be for each band (vs. the radio defaults). Since all of the step and modulation settings default to ‘Auto’, this allows you to skip those settings when programming.
Note: these setting have no effect on service searches.
1. Scroll to the band you wish to edit and press E/yes.
2. At ‘Set Modulation’ scroll to AM, NFM, FM, WFM, or FMB (Broadcast) and
press E/yes to save and exit.
3. At ‘Set Step’ scroll to Auto, 5, 6.25, 7.5, 8.33, 10, 12.5, 15, 20, 25, 50, or 100
kHz and press E/yes to save and exit.
4. Scroll to any other bands you wish to edit and repeat.

In the menu, go to settings>Band defaults. Choose one of the two 700 MHz and set it to 6.25 kHz if its not there already. Do the same for the other 700 MHz offering.

Thanks!
I have NAC:15 Flashing on the display, I assume the signal is being received now?

If this is a TRUNKING SYSTEM it does not need to be setup conventional. You would be better off paying for a Premium Membership and importing all the data correctly.
Uniden does not show all of the numbers but it will be fine all Unidens 436 536 996p2 325p2 sds100 sds200 all do the same as you list.
This is normal do not worry about that just get all sites, control channels and talkgroups you want setup.

Not sure anyone mentioned it, but the last digit is simply not shown. The frequency is exact and the scanner is using the exact frequency. (not like a 50 Hz difference would matter anyway)
