With the help of several people here I am learning the differences between my SDS and the 352P2 and using Proscan to practice programing a 352 before I decide to purchase one. One thing I could not figure out was if more then one GPS location can be created for one group. One particular group I want to create has a GPS location that spans my entire state when I would only be able to hear them in a small potion. They only way I could figure this out was to create multiple groups of the same and adjust the GPS.

Sites, not groups. The sites are used by the system, to broadcast to groups (agencies and "channels" used by that agency.

On a statewide system, agency's that are statewide (say state police) typically allow a unit (car) to work from anywhere in the state.

No, I mean groups. I was under the impression that GROUPS in the 352 amounts to DEPARTMENTS in the SDS series. When i was playing with Proscan and loaded a group, I could add a GPS location. I would like to know if its possible to enter more then 1 per group.

Correct.

The scanner doesn't allow more then 1 location per group, therefore ProScan doesn't either.
