Finding frequency

[waynes]

You gave instructions above on how to make the changes on a scanner, but said you preferred Sentinel. I was asking about that process. Using a 436 HP. Ty!

OK well you need to give specific information on what you're trying to customize or change. The information I provided to the OP (months before you jumped on this thread) was regarding display options for an SDS100, said display options aren't applicable to a 436HP...

Sorry for the confusion. I'm trying to get the new Buckingham sheriff P25 information into a 436 HP. I've tinkered with altering the settings in Sentinel, but am not getting very far. It would be great if the new info was in the RR database, but I don't see it.

I'm late to the party because I had been away from Buckingham for several months and wasn't following the threads. I just discovered the change last weekend, then Googled it to see what happened.

Ty!

@randy6800 reported on this thread that they're now P25 conventional on 151.310. Try plugging that frequency in & once you confim the new NAC and if they're clear or encrypted be sure to submit the updated info to the RRDB. Might be worth checking the listed tac frequency as well: 156.0375

Welcome to the RR forums. Did you hear from a reliable source that they've migrated to Phase-II or are you just assuming? The only existing Phase-II system in proximity to your county is Virginia Statewide Agencies Radio System (STARS) but no sites reside in Buckingham County. I searched this forum for threads/posts regarding a migration for your county but found none. First thing I would do until someone chimes in with pertinent info if nothing is heard on the listed analog frequencies would be to remove the PL tones and listen for digital emissions. Do you have an existing scanner or no? If yes, what make & model?

what type of digital software do the kenwood NX-700H-K radio like DMR
