Using Win97-

I prgrammed in the frequencies in order.
I programmed in about 8 talk ID's (in Decimal)
Changed the Type to MOT
Upload to Scanner.

I go to Bank 4 manually (where I stored them). Pressed MAN -> 400 -> MAN
In manual mode, I HEAR activity on channel 400.
I hit FUNC -> TRUNK, and it shows me a trunking screen that has no activity.

It says
ID BANK 4-0 (I can manually change to 4-X)
MOT: None

But there is no activity. How can I get some scanning or activity?

Thanks

Two questions, what software are you using and what system are you trying?

Maybe you didnt set the freq to MOT. Look for rec mode. Also freqs in order is for LTR trunking. Just PGM in the controller. Be sure to check the ID bank with the ID's because if you dont turn it on it want work. Set name of freq to system name and ID's to detailed name. Sample: Freq name Hwy Patrol. Detail name Greenville. I also put the freq name in the -0- ID position and start with ID #1. Lots of ways to make it look good on scanner. I never use a bank name. Good Luck and post if changing Rec Mode didnt work. Larry

You talk about LTR and MOT at the same time - they are not the same.
