Hello!
I have just purchased a Uniden HomePatrol-2 and am trying to program the RNC into my HomePatrol. I have a favorites list set up in it, and in that it's set up as an EDACS system. Then I have the department as RNC with their TGIDs as two channels. The main TGID's are the main RNC channel, then the info channel. I have site 13 (Kenmount) and site 14 (Shea Heights) also entered.
I know the RNC uses their radio somewhat frequently because I have their freq in my BCT15 to monitor the activity while I couldn't actually hear what they were saying. Under the RNC list I have made, I also get TGID 529(Avalon East RCMP) come up, even as I was writing this.
I have the RCMP set-up on a different favourites list as a P25 Standard but they aren't coming up through that, only the RNC list I have.
So I think this is how it works.
When you program a department you enter the TGIDs of each channel.
So while the scanner is scanning a site when it picks up a signal that has a TGID of a department, it says it's that department on the screen?
And all the other ones come up "Unknown" if they aren't programmed into a department?
I was wondering if I am doing something wrong here and if anyone has theirs set up and it works for the RNC could they help me out?
I also find this strange, I get the RCMP which are in the database as Phase 1 still, but the RNC are EDACS. So I am getting the RCMP on an EDACS system type.
It seems that I am getting all of the analog (A) groups, but not the digital (D) ones.
