Good Luck

I got most of mine through good old hard work.

That is painstakingly sitting with the old Uniden BC346XT or Com-Tek tone decoder and waiting for tones

to drop.

I also got mine when Minitor II's were popular. I would unscrew to screw and pull the guts out and copy

down the tone reed numbers.

I believe if your post was correct, you program pagers. Just read each departments pagers and copy the

tones from the software.

A real good time to catch the tones is if the county does a weekly pager test or there is a storm, disaster or

inclement weather warning if the county does an alert for one.

Radio shops are sort of reluctant to release that type information to just anybody.

But I have found most counties are getting away from the weekly pager and siren test.

Used to be Cabarrus County done it every Saturday at noon, but that stopped years ago

Stanly County is about the only county in my region that still does a weekly pager test and then the first

Saturday of the month they will use DTMF to set off station sirens as well as the pagers.

I think Gaston County still does it on Sunday afternoon around 2pm, that may have changed too.

Iredell used to do pager tests on Monday nights.

Also some counties will set department pagers off for nightly announcements too.

If you do catch them please post to Wiki.

Hope this helps

David

I have them, but I can't wrap my head around why someone who programs couldn't read another pager or radio and get them. And you don't even specify which department it is.
