Forgive me in advance since I'm a novice at KPG-D1N.
I want to receive (not transmit on) my local phase 1 system to listen to some of the other agencies I work with. I have a NX-5200 with a P25 license but unfortunately it doesn't have the phase 1 add-on license since my agency doesn't use the local phase 1 system for day-to-day operations yet.
I am able to receive everything on the tower (with the exception of encryption I assume, which is fine) by entering in all the non-control channels from my local tower by entering on the correct NAC and modulation type for each personality/channel and adding them to the scan list. I would like to narrow that down further to only break squelch for a few talkgroups, but from what I can tell, you can only set one talkgroup per personality/channel.
Would the only work-around (given my cheapness) for monitoring a few specific talk-groups be to create a new set of tower personality/channels for every talkgroup I wanted to filter on?
Example:
CH1 TOWER1_FREQ1 TG1234
CH2 TOWER1_FREQ2 TG1234
CH3 TOWER1_FREQ3 TG1234
CH4 TOWER1_FREQ4 TG1234
CH5 TOWER1_FREQ1 TG5678
CH6 TOWER1_FREQ2 TG5678
CH7 TOWER1_FREQ3 TG5678
CH8 TOWER1_FREQ4 TG5678
Is there a better way of doing this that wouldn't require paying for the phase 1 license since all I want to do is receive a few phase 1 talkgroups (2-3 of them) or is that about it?
