Need help finding some frequencies
Hello. I’m looking for the police frequencies for manchester NH but I can’t seem to find them anywhere. I’d mainly just want to hear dispatch. Thank you
No. Someone responded with a link to about 15 different unnamed frequencies and trunked systems. They never said which one was fire dispatch. All they said was police is encryptedAsked and answered earlier this week.

I'm not from that area but this looks like it would be what you're asking for. It looks like this is the Manchester FD talkgroups on their Phase 1 trunk radio system.

Okay but it was still asked, the Forums does not allow double posting, if someone knows they will answer. And the answer given by multiple people was they are on the trunked system.

Thank you. Do you know how I’d go about programming just the dispatch frequency into my BCD325P2?
Add the system and put in the talkgroup for dispatch only, if that is the only thing you want to hear.
That’s what I’m confused about. How do I know which frequency is just for the dispatch?
It is a system, you need all frequencies marked as control channels then you program in the talkgroup.
Got it. So I put all the frequencies including the red ones into their own p25 standard trunked system?
You only need the control channel frequency. the others are assigned by the system.
In your talkgroup entries, you enter the HEX value then the alpha display for each dispatch
group. these you can put in any order but the scanner wi begin with the first entered.
You can assign priority to any group (IE: Fire Dis) and that will scanned every talkgroup.
What if there’s 4 control channel frequencies?
Enter all 4...3 of them ar backups in case the primary fails. Once the system is in and working, then ONLY program the talkgroup for fire dispatch. You are not programming a frequency for fire dispatch, but have to get the system to work, and then with talkgroups pick the service you want to monitor.

Think of a trunked radio system like a line or queue at walmart. Each frequency (repeater) is an open cash register. Everyone who wants to check-out gets into a line or queue. As the line moves along each person wishing to check-out selects one of the 4 or 5 registers to check out at. But in a trunking scenario each time someone comes through the line might end up at another register. So everyone needs to have all of the frequencies programmed in as a trunked system, because the control channel will tell USER A to go to FREQUENCY 3 and talk on GROUP FD. And when they unkey, the next user might be assigned to FREQUENCY 1 and talk on GROUP FD.
The one unique thing about Motorola Trunked systems is you can put your scanner in C-CH Only mode, and so all you need to program is just the red frequencies from the DB. The scanner will automatically select the in-use voice frequency. So if the trunked system you want to monitor has 2 red CC frequencies, program them in as MOT800 or P25 if it's a P25 system. And then under Group, program in the talkgroup ID number for the agency you want to monitor. Then set the scanner to SCAN mode instead of SEARCH mode. If you are in SCAN ID mode you'll only hear radio traffic from any talkgroup ID's you programmed in under Group. If you're in SEARCH ID mode you'll hear E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G and that might drive you nuts if it's a busy system.
Bottom line, in the 325P2 program only the RED frequencies as a C-CH Only trunked system MOT 800 if it's analog, P25 if it's Digital. And then edit the GROUP and add all of the talkgroup ID's for whichever agency you want to listen to, and set the scanner to SCAN ID.
