DMR Help

[jquittum]

I've upgraded my BCD436HP for DMR, but I'm really lost at programming it.
I'd like to program it for USF Holland referenced at the bottom of this page.
http://www.digitalfrequencysearch.com/Search/DMRdisplay.php Under DMR search.
Could anyone kind of guide me through it?
I'd really appreciate any help.
Thanks

This one?

That's the one. I have no idea how to program it.

I guess I'm having trouble understanding what type of system this is. Four frequencies. 4 frequency ID's.
Are these frequency ID's color codes?
MotoTRBO trunked or 4 single frequency DMR's?
Programming MotoTRBO it wants LCN's. Programming single DMR, color codes.

You would need to program this as conventional. The below from the Digital Frequency Search website is too aid in searching for DMR systems. See below:


464.0625 MO 4 USF HOLLAND INC. WQVJ861 IG TRUCKING COMPANY

After the frequency is "MO" this means it's mobile, not fixed station. 4 is the power @ 4 watts. So you would enter the frequency as Alpha Tag " 464.0625MHz" without quotes, you need to hit the space bar once before entering the frequency and MHz after the frequency. Enter the frequency, Modulation FM, Audio Option NAC/Color Code Search, and the rest of the columns aren't important right now.

Once you have the four frequencies programed upload the the radio and give it a try. If you get voice, you should see Net, Site, Talk Group ID, Slot, and Color Code. Once you have this info you can program a One Frequency or TRBO Trunk.

I hope this helped.

That helps a lot. Thank you very much!

If I'm just trying to hear anything; can I put several frequencies in the same department? Or do I need a different department for each frequency?

I put several frequencies in the same department and it worked for me.
