Need Help w/Camden Co Police Frequencies?

[TrunkerNewbie]

I have a Pro-2051

Need detailed instructions on how to imput the following which I found on the Database:

507.11250 510.11250 WIK700 RM 192.8 PL Police - Zone 1 (North) FM
507.51250 510.51250 WIK701 RM 192.8 PL Police - Zone 2 (Central) FM
507.16250 510.16250 WIK699 RM 192.8 PL Police - Zone 3 (South) FM
507.56250 510.56250 WIK857 RM 192.8 PL Police - Zone 4 (East) FM

I tried following the instructions in my manual but the manual is asking for a chanel number & none of above have any! Only one had a channel number - 5.
I'm following the instructions for "Storing Known Frequencies Into Channels" by pressing FUNC+PGM. PRIVATE and PGM appear. Then inputing the frequencies.

For the heck of it I entered Channel 3 for all the frequencies listed in the Database since I have the EDACS Camden Police in Bank 3. However, so far I am not hearing any of the frequencies.

I hope I posted this in the right place.

You do realize that these are conventional freqs, correct? (I could be mis-reading the message, but it looks as though you're attempting to program Camden County PD as an EDACS system; if I am incorrect, then I apologize in advance.)

In any case, it seems as though you may be programming as an EDACS system as opposed to conventional. Simply enter the freqs in conventional mode and you should be fine...

Thank you ctrabs74.

I entered in the conventional mode & all is now well.

No need to apologize. I didn't realize what I was doing. I live in an EDAC county.

However, it appears I will now need to save up for a digital scanner.

Thank you again for your help.



P.S. I wish the Databases were a little more helpful for newbies.
