PSR500/PSR600: How do I manually enter a talkgroup?

[scanmanmi]

If I want to listen to 3542 and I press manual, 3542, it thinks I want memory 3542 not talkgroup 3542.

The PSR-500/600 does not have a way of going to a talkgroup ID directly, everything entered will be treated as an object ID.

The only real way of going to a talkgroup on the fly without knowing the object ID is to have a dedicated talkgroup object programmed to an easy to remember ID (1, 100, etc) and then edit it as need (PGM/PROG -> EDIT (F2) -> CURR (F2) -> Edit the ID -> Save (F1) -> MAN).

Another way is to completely plan out your programming and assign the object IDs in a easy to remember order with software that you can memorized so that you can quickly switch to a talkgroup as needed.

It's already programmed. If they're talking I can hit Pause. If I press Manual I can arrow around, but if I want to just go to an already programmed item how can I do that?

Every "Object" has a SList # and item # up in the upper left hand corner on manual, write it down ...Then if you punch it in on the key pad and press "ENT" it goes right too it.....

Ok that seems to work. It doesn't work if you are paused or hit Tune.
