TRX-1: Ezscan Programming (aka Not so Ez-scan )

[RedBase1]

Hi chuck. , i chose number 50, as i trying and planning to put different stations all in 1 group , so like say cb put in number 10 , civair, 15, mil in 25 etc, just random numbers, but in a organized file system kinda of thing. Remember those old radios , tandys pro 26s etc, had banks, i would put taxis in 5, air in 6 etc etc...guess cant do that now

yer chuck, have radio connected and off while using ezscan , then when its finished it work, it powers up itself, i take a look thru it and nothing in.

 

[RedBase1]

yer i have and did the " Copy configuration to scanner " part. i think n1gaw metioned that aswel and saved to achive

That's the beauty of EZ-Scan, you can set it up pretty much as you like. As @N1GAW said, your scan set should read"1-200,SW". You will assign the frequencies the the Scanlist section, as you like, with a maximum of 200 scanlists per Scanset.
You should try to upload your programming to the scanner, to see if that works.

Question? Do you have a TRX-1 or TRX-1E? The TRX-1E has bandplans for the UK. I noticed that you are using TRX-1 EZ Scan. There is also a TRX-1E EZ Scan.

Just trouble-shooting here. You did load the mini-SD card in the scanner, and the computer recognizes it when you plug it in?

 

[RedBase1]

Ok chuck many thanks

 

[ChuckWillis55]

Also, saving to Archive is different than loading the configuration in the scanner.

 

[RedBase1]

yer the sd is fitted and radio and pc know its there ...its just been lazy

 

[RedBase1]

i did the config to scanner and then saved to archive aswel .

 

[ChuckWillis55]

Also @tvengr raised a valid point.
So, will the radio scan once you have Saved Configuration to the scanner?

 

[RedBase1]

just catching up with your questions and help... i am in Uk and have TRX1 (not the E model)

 

[RedBase1]

Ahh i did not know that , been scanning for yrs , way back in the 70s and 80s .

 

[ChuckWillis55]

That shouldn't present a big problem in the aviation bands, although I know that Europe rebanded the civil aviation bands in order to get more frequencies. Even if you're slightly off the frequency, the radio should still pick it up.

So, will the radio scan once you have Saved Configuration to the scanner?
To answer this its no , it will not scan as on screen says nothing to scan. a couple of hours ago, i had some mil freqs , then tried a new config, started again, found some diff freqs, did the settings, checked it all and sent to radio.....it finished, and when i checked after, had lost the mil and the new batch of freqs did not go in either

 

[RedBase1]

Who thinks i should i power off radio now, remove sd card, then fit it again maybe it will reset it self and wake up
Btw guys, this is a new tx1 , had couple days, fitted with card but no freqs .
ok i going try do search now , see if i can pick a plane somewhere, i live 10 miles from airport , using diamond antenna inside flat at mo. Let you know if i pick anything up , working on it now

squelch set at 10 clock, just so hash disappears, ..service search on now, its stopping on freqs but only getting alot of hash ,have give squelch another tweak

 

[ChuckWillis55]

You were adding frequencies in the Conventional Frequency tab, correct? You entered the name in the first column, then the frequency in the second column, Mode should be AM, etc. Make sure the frequencies are in the correct Scanlist, on the extreme right.
In General Settings, the Scanlist you put the frequencies in should be Enabled and for now Default.

 

[RedBase1]

set freq on 124.375 ncle tower , waiting for voice coming thru

 

[RedBase1]

ok chuck give me a min i will do that now , i still have program open.
