Chris, My BAD. I didn't read ALL the threads, but still not receiving anything on receiver. And, I am confused about Johnson Co. merging etc. I certainally cannot hear Ft Worth traffic down here in Grandview without yagi antenna and additional height.
I'm using RR to gain DB info and Ard XT Pro to program the 996XT. Guess that I am at a total loss, huh.
Regards,
Jerry
The database admins merged the JoCo P25 and the Fort Worth P25 because they are essentially the same system, except that Johnson County agencies use site 004 and FW agencies will use site 001. Think of it in the same fashion as the
TxWARN system. As you can see it's one large P25 system connected by multiple tower sites. All on the same system just different sites and frequencies.
All you should need to do is setup the system as P25 and then program all the frequencies for site 004 listed here:
Fort Worth Regional Radio System
And then of course plug in whatever talkgroups you want to listen to.
I wouldn't even bother with the frequencies for the Fort Worth site (Site 001) because that part of the system is going to be completely encrypted. You won't hear a thing.
As far as Johnson County (Site 004) their isn't a whole lot of activity as of yet. I'm hearing a lot more JoCo SO traffic, but as noted before they haven't completely moved off of their old VHF analog frequencies. My hunch is that SO as well as Cleburne PD are probably still programming handhelds and getting radios installed in all of their respective vehicles. It shouldn't be much longer before activity picks up even more.
Let me know if I can be of further assistance in troubleshooting why your not hearing anything. I have two Uniden scanners, so I am very familiar with how they work and how to program them.
