I have never been able to get this feature to work.
Most of my systems have a Favorite List of 1. The primary trunked system I monitor has a Favorite Quick Key of 1. The dispatch channel has a Number Tag of 1. So, if I understand correctly, I should be able to go directly to the above mentioned dispatch channel by pressing:
CHAN 1.1.1 CHAN
However when I do this, I see:
CH Number Tag
1.1.1
is not Stored
Press Any Key
Yes, it is stored. I have verified this via the Sentinel Software, as well as the Butel ARC436 software. In fact, no matter what three sets of numbers I enter, I get the same message. In fact, the Butel software even gives you a list of the "Shortcuts" for each particular system, but no matter which of these shortcuts I enter, I get the "is not stored" message.
Each of my systems is assigned a sequential numbered Quick Key, and each channel/talkgroup is assigned a sequential Number Tag.
This must be a simple matter of my doing something wrong, but I cannot figure it out.
