it is an EDAC system, it is affected by rebanding. Both the Greene Co and Xenia systems are combination systems with frequencies owned by Greene Co, City of Xenia, and other agencies along with WS electronics. The frequencies privately owned by WS are not affected by the rebanding. However, the public frequencies used by Greene Co and Xenia are.
Look at the Data Base. I am looking at printouts before and after the rebanding. For Greene Co the first 4 slots and freqs are the same. Slot (05), 855.8375 is new and replaces 860.8875. Slot (07) 855.8375 is new, and slot (10) 860.1625 is also new.
As for Xenia, slot (01) 851.2250, slot (02) 851.9625, slot (03) 852.4125, slot (04) 852.4625, and slot (05) 853.4375 are all new which replaced 866.2250, 866.9625, 867.4125, 867.4625, 868.4375 respectively. Slots (06), (07), and (08) are blank. Slots (09) through (13) are duplicates of slots (01) through (05).
My question is, on the Green Co system, the freq 855.8375 is listed in 2 different slots, (05) and (07). On the Xenia system, slots (09) through (13) are duplicates of slots (01) through (05).
Since EDAC systems have to have the freqs entered in the exact order, what do you do with the dupicate freqs on that Greene Co system ? My scanners will not accept a duplicate frequency on an EDAC system. And, what do you do with the blank slots and duplicate freqs on the Xenia system ? Do you just skip them ?
I have approx 45 scanners ( both 396 Ts and XTs and 996Ts and XTs) remotely covering 15 different counties. This rebanding is driving me crazy. The firmware updates and the Motorola systems are a big enough pain but the way the info is listed in the Database for the these two EADAC systems ( the first two to reband in this area) are really throwing me.
I'm hoping to find someone who has already dealt with these two systems with success.
