Greenville, Texas PD has a new VHF Hi band freq that they have moved all their voice traffic to. It was mixed analoug-P25, but in the last week has gone all P25. SO:
I got a new BCD396 and programmed it up (took a while) and was not able to get the radio to decode the p25 traffic, until this evening.
Today while playing with the mode setting, I accidentally set the modulation type to AM and began to hear all the voice traffic (I can still tell the radio is in the AM receive mode); I hear all the voice traffic FB no with no fading or dropouts just the AM ringing from an FM style transmission. Placing the radio in auto for modulation type, narrow FM, or FM does not decode the P25 traffic but give me the warbling tones of P25 format. P25 traffic on this frequency is only audible via AM.
I am sure that there is a setting for P25 reception, but where do I go and what's a good place to start?
Thanks...
