Hi Mike,

I assume you are using a custom table correct?

Attached is a snippet of an old WIN96 file of mine that I used for NAVSTA and NNSY.

Mike,

If you aren't using Win96 you need to set the trunking tables.
In the bank(s) with the system(s) press PGM>TRUNK>FUNC + 2
Key in 406.0000 base and press ENTER
Key in 380 and press ENTER
Press DOWN button to 12.5KHz and press ENTER
FUNC + 3
Press DOWN button to Table on bottom line and press ENTER
SCAN

Frank, I followed your directions initally during the programming and nothing. My question would be do I need to enter all frequencies or just the control channels? This system has stumped me for sometime.

Just the controls. The normal control is 406.7250 for NOB and is currently active. 408.5250 is normal and currently active for the Shipyard.

It's a Win96 file inside. Does you pc open zips of any kind? Try right clicking on the file and select download.

No my PC won't open any type of zip file. I have both CC for NNSY and talk id's entered CC are set to motorola mode and still nothing.

What does the CC display on line 4 when you manually park on it?

Mike,

The shipyard is not very busy daytime, try NOB which is.
