Problems programming SC Pal 800

[RICLB]

BCD325P2 Works great on P25 and Conv. Systems. I can't get audio on Mot 2 system. I see Control Ch Frec and IDs on LCD .Signal very good from site. I am using Freescan to program. I may be returning unit soon. Thanks For Any Help

What system? Is it maybe encrypted?

If it works on P25 and conventional, there is no other reason it would not work on Motorola Type II trunked.

Upload your file here so someone can take a look at your programing. Also which sites (towers) are you trying to hit?

Who specifically are you trying to listen to? Some talk groups are analog, some are digital, a few are encrypted.

If you can't get audio, but are getting control channel data and seeing talk groups, it's more likely to be a programming issue than a scanner issue.

I think Wise871 was asking for you to uploaded your Freescan file so he can take a look at it.

I am not sure how to upload file to site.

Glad you were able to get things squared away!
I visit SC (Anderson) pretty often to see family so I know the Pal 800
very well.
Edited thread title to better reflect situation.
