Hello all,
How do I implement changes to the Tone out list using Freescan on the 996xt? There are multiple agencies on the local dispatch VHF channel, and I put them all in once I found the tones. Now I no longer want any of them to alert, except two FDs.
I have edited the .996 file to remove the unwanted entries and have done an upload, but they're still in the scanner. Furthermore, I can't find an option to delete unwanted fire tones within the scanner's own interface.
Any idea what I might be doing wrong here? Should be simple enough. About all I can do is edit the unwanted entries in the tone-out list to an invalid frequency, which is the next step if I can't do it the right way.
Thanks in advance.
