Hey, I just recently moved to Mobile and was trying to pick up some stuff on my scanner. Im not sure if Mobile is on the old system Mobile County Trunking System, Mobile, Alabama - Scanner Frequencies

Or the new ARCS.

Also, if it is the old system, do I just program it as a trunking? And plug in all the site frequencies or whaT? I did the one for the 4 county system in Calhoun county but forgot how to and what to put in.

All help is appreciated., Thank you.
Chris

Program the truking frequencies in RED listed in the database in your scanner and you should be able to hear them unless they are encrypted. It looks like they are using a ProVoice System. The ACRS is new to the area. I would program it in as trunked and watch it for future use. Mobile Fire is streamed here on RR. So you csn compare it to your scanner.

No, this is a EDACS system. Program ALL frequencies EXACTLY as listed for whichever sites you intend to monitor. ProVoice is only in very limited use by Mobile Fire/Rescue, KMOB Security, and a couple of other limited use, unknown users. Probably won't be any futher expasion of PV usage either given that there is no future for that system.

I also don't understand why you wouldn't monitor both. Need all the info we can get on the new P25 system.

You also may want the Mobile TRS too. The only thing left on it is the PD and FD.

For that one all you SHOULD need is the listed primary CC's. Though I haven't checked them in quite a while.
