The first thing you do is program in a Trunk System Object which is the details of the trunking system. Options are as follows then what I have it programed to:
1) System Type: P25 Auto (other options: MOT800/900, MOTVHF/UHF, P25Manual, EDACSStandard, EDACSNarrow, LTR)
2) Alpha Tag: PigeonFrgPubSfty (Just whatever i want to name it of course)
3) Frequencies: 1-769.806250, 2-770.331250, 3-770.343750, 4-771.406250 (Frequencies for the trunk system. I usually put all of the frequencies, but maybe I shouldnt have done that with this type)
4) Lockout: Blank (Its not lockedout)
5) Attenuator: Blank (Its not attenuated)
6) Narrow FM: Blank (Its not set on narrowfm)
7) AudioBoost: Blank (adds 6db of audio if set to on, blank is off)
8) Dwell: 0 (This is programmed 0 by default)
9) Digital AGC: Blank
10) SuperTrack: Blank
11) MultiSite: Blank
12) Threshold High: 95 (Programmed 95 by default)
13) Threshold Low: 75 (Programmed 75 by default)
14) T-Tables: Blank (Other options are Default, Splinter, Custom. Not sure what blank is. Have some mottype2 and ltr trunksystems that are set to default. This could be a problem too.)
15) Edit TTables: double click to edit (they have not been edited)
16) Fleetmap: Type2 (there are several other options here from E1P1 through E1P16 and custom, maybe this needs to be changed.)
17) Edacs Invert: blank
18) LTR Automove: blank (this is just for LTR systems)
19) Check All CC: No
Some of those settings only belong to specific trunking systems.
.
One thing I definitely found is the T-Tables HAS TO BE set to
Default for it to follow a P25 system. That makes it Explicit which basically means it follows what the Control Channel is broadcasting.
Also set your Narrow FM to
Yes.
Give that a shot, I think that is your problem.
Talk to you later and let me know if that helps.

Im looking at the programming through the scanner now and not through ARC500 because like I say some of those options in Arc500 do not all apply. It suprising easy once I fiddled around with it a min or two. Im looking at the Trunking System Object that I have created and in the scanner it only gives me these options to play with in a P25Auto system (P25Manual are the same options):
Type: p25 auto
Tag: name i created
Frequencies: program in the frequencies
L/Out: off
vv expert options below vv
Atten: off
Narrow FM: no (i will set to yes)
Audio Boost: off
Dwell: 0
Dig AGC: Off
Supertrack: Off
Multi-Site: Off
T Tables: Default
So those are the only options out of that list I gave you before, so that should narrow down the field of settings. There is no Fleetmap setting in the scanner so i guess that must not matter but when i save the file in ARC500 it automatically puts Type2 there for some reason.
When I was up there before I played with all of those settings and I still got nothing. I dont remember about the T Tables but im thinking because it was blank in ARC500 it put it as default but not 100% sure and also i cant remember if i changed the narrowfm setting either.
Im thinking it will be this saturday to come up there. Are you going to be working then or what? Thats the plant that the mudslide killed a couple of fellers a little while back isnt it?
