I recently lost my city PDs in Lima, OH

[jong54]

I can no longer receive my local city police, but still get the sheriff an EMS. I have the Home Patrol scanner, and don't know alot about this other than initial programming. Can anyone help me get it back?

what County is Lima in ?

Allen County. MARCS-IP is active and being used there. Try those listings.

If using favorites list - add those.

If using the full database - update next Monday .

Allen Co = Lima = 852.6875 & 852.4125 , = 38592= Lima PD, 38640= Lima PD Multi tac
38384=Allen Co So, & 38400=Allen Co So Tac #1 & 38432=Allen Co So Tac #2
Hope this helps you out.

YEP, I sure did hit the wrong one, sorry about that !

Lima PD is TG 5511 not 38592. Go to Allen County on Ohio MARCS-IP: Multi-Agency Radio Communications (P25) Trunking System, Various, Ohio - Scanner Frequencies

I really appreciate your help, but still not finding it where you are saying it is. Do I need to program it in that location or should it already be their. I have 4 things listed in Allen County on Ohio Marcs-IP Multi-Agency! Shawnee TWP FD 5532, Shawnee TWP PD 5538, Sheriff Dispatch 54757, and Statewide Interop 54503. I'm confused!!

The database is up to date. There are currently 16 talk groups for Allen County. If you scan using the database you need to update it.

If you have created a favorites list for Allen County (which would be your best bet) just add the talk groups.

Thank you W8RMH. That reply made sense to me, I finally got them. It helps when you plug the scanner into the computer when you update.

Glad to hear you got it working, enjoy.
