Hey guys,
I have a 2053 that just came to me a few days ago. I'm having trouble picking up my 800mhz channels. If I scan manually through them they will broadcast, but if I select "scan" it scans through the banks but won't pick anything up.
These 800mhz channels are on a Motorolla type I system, and I have selected them on the "MOT" setting. If I set them to "FM" they will pick up when I "scan" the banks. Doing this creates a mess of not knowing who I am picking up though.
The first day I had the scanner It seemed to be working okay, and I had changed a few of the Motorolla IDs to common users here (EMS, Couriers, and Garbage collectors), but it seemed that once I named the ID's to custom tags the system stopped working right.
For example one of the id's was "31666" and i changed it to display "EMS"
I'm new to the trunking system and this manual for the scanner seems rather confusing! Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks
