need information, in group scan mode the top line of display shows /TG then signal strength, I cannot find anything that informs me what the / indicates
Clarification by group I mean trunked group not conventional which is what the (T) indicates and I know the (G) stands for global and if a (F) was where the (/) is it means it is funtion mode but (/) is a mystery so far.
There is no such symbol as "/" in the PSR 500 manual. You have something strange going on. Perhaps a Factory Restore might clear up that symbol. Be sure you have a saved copy of your configuration before doing a Factory Restore.
