I shall try and get a picture tomorrow.
But now that I have provided the link the the RR page where I got the freq from, does the programming make sense that I provided in the first post? Do I need to choose D627N or D627I? and for which one? CTC/DCS ENC or CTC/ENC DEC? I also do not understand all the other settings.
Sorry, I know I am very new to ham radios but I have not had any issues with programming other freqs and this would be a really nice freq to get working
DPL and DCS are the same thing. Different radio brand will use different terminology, but they are the same thing. Kenwood radio use DQT, Digital Quiet Tone. DPL, Digital Private Line is used by Motorola, other radios will use DCS, Digital Coded Squelch.
Try D627N, but if that doesn't work, try D627I.
D627N is DCS code 627 "normal" (what the "N" stands for)
D627I is DCS code 627 "inverted" (what the "I" stands for). You won't see inverted DCS codes very often.
Since you are receiving only, you only need to be concerned about the DCS DEC (Decode, which is the receive side). ENC, or Encode, is only for transmitting.
I could understand a radio beeping if it was trying to transmit and wasn't programmed for it, but I doubt this is what you are hearing. If it is not a continuous buzz when you are listening, in other words, buzzes for a few seconds, stops, buzzes again, etc, then it's really likely they are using a digital form of modulation. Digital modulation shouldn't be confused with Digital Squelch (DCS, DPL, DQT, etc).
If they are using Motorola hand held radios, it is likely either MotoTrbo, which is a Motorola specific variation of DMR (DIgital Mobile Radio) or P25 (APCO Project 25). For a campus security force, I'd guess MotoTrbo
but depending on how much money they had to spend, it could be P25.
If it is MotoTrbo or P25, you won't be able to decode it with your radio. Your radio is FM/Analog only, and it won't decode DMR/MotoTrbo or P25 without some external equipment.
