I was finally able to get my hands on a G5. Trying to program this beast has been quite the challenge. P25 trunked stuff is pretty straight forward, however, the conventional VHF programming not so much.
Two questions with regards to the analog conventional frequencies:
1) When attempting to set up a knob position as a "scan list" for everyday monitoring (similar to a scanner), would I select "Normal Scan", "Silent Scan", or "Priority Scan"? The three options presented are a bit confusing. All I want to do is set up one knob that scans 4 or 5 different frequencies and monitor them in a particular order (similar to what the G4 does with trunked talkgroups).
2) As far as automatic two-tone decoding goes, does the G5 even have that capability? For instance, if I don't know what the "A-tone" or "B-Tone" are would the G5 be able to tell me that information?
Hope that all makes sense...
Edit: Found the G5 programming white papers on the Unication Website, so a majority of my questions have been answered. Here's the link in case anyone else finds themselves in a jam: https://www.dropbox.com/s/4m1ip2rlgd0fkt2/Unication G5 White Papers 2016.pdf?dl=0
