Hi everyone,
I just got the scanner 2 days ago and I have been doing a ton of reading. I really enjoy learning about all of this. That being said, I still feel like I'm missing a lot of information. If you could help me with the below questions that would be excellent thank you so much for your time.
- since this scanner picks up a lot of different types of signals, it's been overwhelming to me. I want to know if you are scanning and you run across a frequency and it's a control channel for p25. Do you just save it in favorites and then you could listen to the entire trunked system?
- can you recommend a place that shows all of the different signal types (p25, fm, am, trbo, etc). Do you program all of these into your radio the same?
- I'm just really wanting to scan trunked systems and I don't know what to do if I run across one. If you find a control channel and save it till you get to search by talk group or something?
Any help would be appreciated. I just have no idea what to do when I run across the different signal types. I only really feel comfortable operating in the main database of channels but I wanted to start storing some frequencies in the favorites. Is it really hard to store trunked systems for a beginner?
