I'm using the win 97 program which I just got working. There are other freq in blue which I have added as well in the MOT Custom Trunking table but there's only room for 3 and there's 3 blue and 1 red. I have added the freq to the MOT custom trunking table and the TG and I have locked out everything else. I upload the information to the scanner and it says it's completed but then when I hit scan etc the channels that I locked out on the program are NOT locked out. I don't understand why!! I'm getting frustrated. I only want to have sector 5 because my fiance is a Deputy and that's the only sector I want right now. But I just don't understand why nothing that I'm locking out is being locked out from the program.
That is the problem! You must remove the frequencies from the custom trunking tables and put them in the area that says alphatags, frequency, rx mode. This is where the frequencies need to be entered

When you remove the frequencies from the custom trunking table, re-enter the 406.000 frequencies in all three spots. If you didn't change the offset and step, you will be OK. Make sure that when you enter the frequencies in the BANK area, that the RX mode is MOT(you can get this in a drop down window by double clicking on the area) and selecting MOT. Do this for all the frequencies. In the area above this is where you will see bank, tag, closed, and type. Double click on type and choose MOT. If you have the TG's entered in the window with the Alphatag, ID, and Lout you are now ready to get the scanner going on the system. Under file, click on save and it will prompt you to Save As. Make up a name for the file and add .p97 at the end! Turn the scanner on, plug in the cable and click on Scanner. Then click on upload to scanner. Wait until the upload finishes and remove the cable from the scanner. If you are using the USB cable, the scanner will reboot and start scanning the OC SO department. If you need to, Let me know what the frequencies are and I will put together a file for what you want to listen to.
