There is no choice in the System Type for P25 Phase 2 TDMA in my scanner. My choices are "P25 Trunk" and "P25 X2-TDMA". Let me point out that I was able to do a workaround which was very time intensive where I manually created a new Favorite List in the scanner and assigned the correct System Type "P25 X2-TDMA" and manually built my local department group for Texas City using the information in the default database and it absolutely works. My issue is I don't have enough time to manually build each one in my area and anytime I try to add one from the USA database it defaults to system type "P25 Trunk" with no option to change it in the scanner. I actually did a couple of Departments in my area using this manual workaround and each of them worked. I should not have to manually build these in order to make them work. There is definitely an issue in the database associated with this system. I have done both the firmware and database updates but the issue still continues.
I actually deleted all the other groups to focus directly on the one department of interest. If I do that it gives me an error that there is nothing to scan. I have repeatedly tried 20 different times creating it directly from the database and no method I try works. It's quite strange the only way that does work is when I manually create the favorite in the scanner and forced it to the system type P25 X2-TDMA. I totally created another favorite group deleted everything except the talk group I showed above and added on other P25 Trunk system that did not contain talk groups. At that point it began to scan but it did not scan the Texas City Talk group. I am totally baffled. I guess I will just continue to manually build the groups I want to listen to that are predominately talk groups that wont work through the normal method.
