When creating a trunked system I have always given the same name to both the system and the site. For example they both may be set for "Ambulance". When the scanner is scanning this system, the display says "Ambulance" and I know what I am scanning.
Recently I set up a new system with multiple sites. The system name is "HWY 400 Police" and the sites represent all the sites adjacent to this particular highway. In this system I named the sites by the name of the village they are located in.
What surprised me is that at no time do I ever see the system name "HWY 400 Police" on the display. When the scanner is scanning , I just see the site names flashing past, and when a signal is received I see the TGID group name and the TG name itself.
I have tried the three different display settings without any help. Am I missing something here? Perhaps a system setting? I would like to think that if I can create systems in the scanner, that it would show me which system I am listening to.
Any help would be appreciated.
