I have Cambridge MA's P-25 Radio System programmed into my Uniden BCD996XT Scanner. Although I live some distance away, I am receiving some of the Talkgroups on this system. I'm using an outside antenna connected to the radio with LMR-400 cable.
Some of the talkgroups generate actual communications I can hear, while others show on the screen with no audio present.
It appears that there may be a mixture of analog and digital control channels programmed. My question is:
If I installed just the five control and alternate P-25 control channels, would signals be received, or is it necessary to install the voice channels as well?
