I was in town the other day. I could not pick up any Fire broadcasts. PD came in fine.
I have down loaded both using Win96. I only downloaded the CC. What am I missing? The signal on the CC was 95%. Is it possible that I need to put in all the frequencies?I also notice here that there are conventional frequencies for the fire department. May I should use those?
Thanks for all the help

It sounds like you only have the CC for the PD system. There is a seperate CC for the fire dept which is on 800.

The fire talkgroups on 460 are not active until a 460 radio affiliates on them, and likewise with police talkgroups on 800. If you want to listen to everything, you need to set up both systems in entirety.

Thanks guys. I have both the400 and 800 is seperate banks with all talk groups listed. I have also tried to but both 400 &800 in the same bank with no luck. The 400 (PD) comes in load and clear.
