I`m real new at this so bare with me. When I`m looking at the database for a state how can I tell if its trunked or not and does it make a difference when I input the frecs or not?

I does make a difference when entering a trunked system. It would help more if you posted this in your state forum, stated what state and system you're looking at and what scanner you have.

Lake co. seems to be mostly conventional.
The link is here:
http://www.radioreference.com/modules.php?name=RR&ctid=1269
the conventional freqs look like this:
Lake, County of []

Frequency Input License Type Tone Description Mode
155.86500 KXE704 M M.E.P.S.S. - Statewide Emergency FM
155.74500 153.90500 WNWV404 RM Emergency Management FM
154.43000 154.01000 WNWR496 RM 118.8 PL Fire - Dispatch FM
154.26500 WPTK329 M Fire - Fireground FM
154.29500 WPTK329 M Fire - DNR Fireground FM

I don't know enough about Lake co. to say what MPSCS sites are there or what type of scanner you have to say if you can monitor it.

Those "things" in green are the updates for the last 24 hours:cool: The other ones should appear yellow and are for seven days at least.
Conventional are displayed with all the counties for your home state. There is a link for
trunk systems from your state's page and new updates will also appear in green.
