Santa was nice to this wildland firefighter, and brought him (ok, UPS helped a bit!) an ICOM 1821 (analog) and programming software and cable.
Couple of questions as I anxiously await the UPS guy's face in the driveway bringing me my box...
1) Scan feature: I understand you can have mulitiple scan banks (zones)... How would one recommend setting up zones like 1) All Fire Dispatch, 2) All Wildland, 3) All LEO and then All frequencys in radio?
2) Two Tone feature: I'm assuming these are Two Tone Motorola tones, like for the Minitor etc? Any suggestions on how to set this up? I respond with two districts, one of which uses Two Tone on the minitor, one that uses digital paging - I know I can't do the digital paging, but can I set this up to receive and tone for the two tone, no matter what channel I'm on?
3) Scan Settings - can anyone fill me in on these settings?
Thanks much!!
PM or email is fine, or reply to thread.
