Anyone know the base freq, offest and step settings for this system...or what settings are needed for pro 96 scanner?

This is just for the north site Mhawah? but there is other sites were tested but are not now transmitting
when they go on the air this may change?!?

Translated for the Pro-96, that should be Base=470.0000, Offset=12288, Step=6.25. You'll need to program all the control & alternate control channels but programming voice-only channels into the Pro-96 is a waste. Based on the channel information listed by ScanXO this one configuration will suffice, if they ever add frequencies below 470 or above 500 then a multi-table would have to be programmed.

It appears to this amateur that they have incorrect input offsets for UHF, that they should be 5, 3, and 3 for those sub-bands. I wonder if it is deliberate, as I have seen that once before on a control channel which is only on the air for license-saver purposes; it would be an extra precaution against accidental usage. Key-ups on the license-saver site could interfere with transmissions on a nearby operational site; now they're stand-alone with some overlapping frequencies but eventually they'll be simulcast.
