Hello, I have a very little issue with my scanner. It seems to be when I scan just Channel 6 for fire dispatch onl. When they get dispatched I hear 900 come across the dispatch channel saying like "905 responding on that" or something. I know they use their own channel and it is patched over to the RM channel as well as fire. Then the fire crews switch to channel 1 to say "entroute". Anyway, I was wondering why would I be getting Rural Metro chat on the fire channel? I have it setup like this:
23552 5c0 D SFLS FIRE 6 Sioux Falls Fire 6 Fire Dispatch
It's not a big deal really, just would be nice if I could just get it like to scan just the dispatches only. Instead of getting 900 chat on it sometimes after a medical comes over. Might be the way I have it scanning as well. Metro never says like "905 you are on SIoux Falls Fire 6". like Ive heard sometimes
Also, I use the fire paging tone on that freq. and is there an option to have a talkgroup cut out on a freq. if it detects it be being used? The pager tone goes off on the scanner and sometimes it cuts half of the dispatch audio. I would use PRI but just one thing I don't like with that is if you are listening to something else it cuts out every so often then resumes. Which I guess is ok if you just want to listen to that and it isnt that hard to turn it off/on either.
Thank you for reading this.
