Passport programming

[SKYNET156]

I have an Astro Saber, and i am interested in programming it with my local Passport system, i want to program the channels for RX only conventional, but when i do, The system transmitts every 2 seconds or less, tying up my scan list, is there a way to program Passport so it doesn't have the data burst on the conventional channel?

There isn't really a way to do that, from what I understand of passport the collect and home channel will TX the burst every so often and will carry most of the traffic on the system.

A collect channel isn't supposed to carry a lot of traffic - unless you want it to be a poor collect channel...

I'll save you the effort of doing this and tell you the Astro Saber does not support Passport LTR Trunking.

im well aware that the astro saber does not support LTR, I am asking if i programmed the Passport CC conventionally in my radio, is there a way to stop the CC from the data burst every few seconds?

No. That's somewhat akin to programming EDACS conventionally, and not wanting to hear the end of transmission beep sequence.

I see you monitor my old area in Queens, are you from that area. I worked the 109,111,107,105 on a 911 ambulance in the 80's.

Probably something for Private Messages rather than jacking the thread.
