On my 996xt when searching in the control channel mode only, when I press hold and then toggle Func and Disp to mode three the radio will decode most system id's by name if they are set up that way.

I note that the County Control channel 501.9125 and the Franklin system 477.400 both decode as Franklin.

Wonder why.

The Franklin site came on-line before the Somerset County main system did for normal use (they share the same site controller).

That's the simple fact of what caused Uniden to assign the 'Franklin' name to 8A27 in the firmware of the 396/996.
