I have a Whistler ws1040 it’s programmed to my local of fire ems sheriffs but looking for near county’s and can’t seem to find there talk groupsLooking at the database page for your county:
Kleberg County, Texas (TX) Scanner Frequencies and Radio Frequency Reference

It appears that most of the communications are on this trunked system:

DPS is not trunked, so there are no talkgroups. The database has great info for DPS as far as frequencies and how the state is setup in areas and who talks on what.
Game wardens are all over the place...again, the database is your friend. If you have the system in the scanner, then it is listening and determining who is who. If you get good info, and confirm it you can submit it here. I haven't paid much attention to game wardens, but seems like they can show up on the DPS system, their own frequencies, the county sheriff system, et al.
Game wardens, maybe!?!?!

You could put in the region 3 frequencies, or the statewide system just to be smart...

So I just put in the frequencies for dps and it should workGame wardens, maybe!?!?!

That's similar to what I do. I have the Region I stations (Dallas area) that I can pick up here in North Texas. I also include the entries handled out of the Mineral Wells office.DPS

But I also have the entire statewide channel plan in case I'm out of my normal area, or if there is a band opening, and stations normally out of range can temporarily be monitored.
While I have the TP&W (game wardens) programmed, I very rarely hear anything on their channels, whether I'm here in Dallas, or spending weekend time with friends near PK lake. But, quite often when out west, I hear game wardens on the Sheriff's Office dispatch channels.
I'm not familiar with the WS1040 at all....maybe someone can jump on here and help you.
DPS can be programmed without the NAC if you want...but you might hear another part of the state on that frequency if the conditions are right...

So what you want to do is, in addition to your 'home' county (Kleberg), you'd also like to monitor some of the neighboring counties as well?
For your county, I see some frequencies licensed that are not listed on your county's database page.
Examples:

Fire & PD may simply have these to use as a backup, in case the trunked system goes down. However, there are a bare handful of talkgroups listed for the system. I'd suggest that you add a wildcard to the system, in case there are other users not documented.

For the channel listed as "Sheriff Secondary". I think those frequencies are revered. 158.8125, which is indicated as the input, is on the FCC license as a a base repeater. 155.0325, listed as the primary frequency, is licensed for mobiles and fixed stations, not a repeater. If you want to try that county, try using 158.8125 as well as 155.0325.
Are you programming manually, via the keypad, or are you using software. If software, which program?
The WS1040, which is essentially the same scanner as the PSR-500, as well as RadioShack's Pro-106 & Pro-197, can utilize the NAC codes.
Good stuff Steve....hopefully this helps him out!!!!!

I got my local pd fire sheriffs and college pd program. I’m manually programming
If you have the cable, that should have come with the scanner, you might download & try one of the three software packages that work with your scanner"
ARC500, PSREdit500, & Win500.
Object Oriented Scanner Software - The RadioReference Wiki
Each of these has a 30-day free trial period, before you have to purchase or discontinue use. After purchase, there is no additional charge to use indefinitely, and, if any updates are created, the updates would be free.
Yes, you certainly can program your scanner manually, using the keypad. However, software is much quicker, especially when it comes to customizing text tags for what you program. Also, using software, you are seeing almost all of the needed information at one time, instead of stepping thru multiple menu screens on the scanner. That makes it much easier to find and correct errors or omissions in the data entry process. Also, if you get stuck at something, you can post a copy of your file for an 'extra pair of eyes' to take a look & offer suggestions. Or, someone can provide you a file that they created.
For manual programming, if you have not already done so, take a look at this Wiki page, as well as the Easier to Read manual for your scanner.

No luck on the dps Frequency I put in for my area
DPS is not all that busy...they do a lot of their comms thru the MDT in the cars! Put in the entire list for the CC area...the primary frequency could be down or comms switched to another frequency. Most of the road units have ALL of those frequencies in their radios...
It could also be the antenna you are using...
It could also be the antenna you are using...
Its also possible DPS is dispatched by the county on the weekend...happens in a lot of areas.
You might consider a post in the Texas forum asking if anyone in the CC area could help you with programming the WS1040...locals will know a lot more about usage and may not post the info here or to the DB
