Yes most of them have the NFM under it

You must be too far away to receive them. Try outdoors?

 

[mags97]

It has full bars at the top

Dunno. You'll have to wait for @tvengr to troubleshoot your programming. I'm sure he'll figure it out.

Just heard some talk on one frequency about a fire so we’re getting somewhere

 

[mags97]

It was frequency 156.1425. That’s the only one so far

 

[ka3aaa]

i didnt see any system or group keys displayed for the system

 

[mags97]

What do you mean

 

[doctordialtone]

What do you mean

System and Group Keys are used to display which Systems and Groups are active/enabled.

S for System
G or Group

 

[mags97]

Yeah it’s showing now on my scanner the systems and groups after I programmed the last file. I’ll take a picture

 

[mags97]

 

[mags97]

Sorry it took so long to post the picture, but I haven’t heard anything all day on it. I don’t know what’s the deal. Could it be encrypted like the other person said or something else? If it is encrypted how do I get it unencrypted?

 

[doctordialtone]

If it is encrypted how do I get it unencrypted?

If it's encrypted, you're out of luck. No WAY around that.

You should see "ENC" flash on the display if that's the case.

 

[mags97]

it doesn’t show ENC on any of them, so I guess it’s not

 

[mags97]

I noticed it says ID scan rather than ID search. That may be the problem... how do I change that

 

[mags97]

Nevermind I did it. I notice that some frequencies make a rapid noise then stops, what does that mean

 

[mags97]

I wish I could send a video to better show what it’s doing

When one of these make a 'rapid voice', but then it stops, that might possibly be due to encryption. See if you can catch a glimpse of ENC briefly on the display.

I noticed it says ID scan rather than ID search. That may be the problem... how do I change that

To toggle the trunked system back to ID Search, pres the Func key, then the Scan/Srch key.

 

[mags97]

I don’t see the ENC on the screen when it does the noise. Should I just take it back since it’s not picking up anything

Im pretty sure youre issueis that the county has moved from that analog system to a P25 system, and is alsoencrypted.
If theyre on another system altogether, it would explain why youre not seeing "ENC" plus not hearing anything, besides the occasional dispatch that may be rebroadcast on the old analog channels.
The link that hiegtx posted shows people in your area confirming this.
No scanner will be able to listen to encryption, so you'd have to find a neighboring county that isn't encrypted that you can still pick up, or find another industry to listen to (planes, rail, business, hospitals,etc). It sucks, but it is what it is

 

[mags97]

what does FMN mean?
