I got one tone for Station 22. I'm not sure Tone B is right.

Tone A 1217.8 Tone B 433.7 or 445.7 just wondering if someone can help see if that is correct. Its hard to pick up the UHF in St Augustine. I am picking up the UHF channel no problem tonight.

Will my scanner feed give you the tone "pure enough" to decode, as it comes over the 800MHz system?

I'm not sure I have to try do from line in and speaker on the sound that might work. I had my psr500 and my 966 on the 996 set on UHF and the 500 set for the 800 and I didn't now hear the 2 tone on 800 just UHF. I do hear the short tone on the 800. I'm not able to pick up the UHF during the day I hear them at night when the weather is cool or cold like last night and tonight.

I have a directional antenna that you could try. It's a VHF/UHF ELK antenna. I am surrounded by concrete, so working amateur radio stuff from the house is a pain. Thankfully there is a TRS tower just a few miles away from me (near the St Johns-Duval county line).
