Hello, I am wondering if someone could help me in the process of programming the 996. I am using BcTool and I am still not receiving any digital content. I do receive some conventional content here and there. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the reply, I have been searching around and havent found what I need yet but I will keep looking, I believe I have all the talk groups entered correctly, I'm just not sure if I have the correct trunk frequency or not.

I have my 996 programed for S Dakota. When you program the system you must set it up as a VHF system, when I programed the 1st time I did it as a P25 and it would not receive voice, just the talk ID came up. Make sure you put the off sets and spacing also. Their system works very well with great audio on the 996. Good luck
