Hi. I’m fairly new to scanning. I have a WS 1040, digital trunking scanner. I don’t know how to find/calculate talkgroup IDs/alpha tags. Could anyone offer some help? I’d greatly appreciate it.

Most if not all of that information should be found in the database section. Start with the applicable state, then go to county, then locate the system of interest.

What is your location (city, county, state)?
Madisonville KY Hopkins County. I’d sooooo appreciate if you could help me out. I’ve been trying to figure it out for months
Here you are: Hopkins County P25 Trunking System, Madisonville, Kentucky - Scanner Frequencies
I'm not that familiar with your model of scanner. If it was Uniden, I'd say to use the dec which is decimal, rather than the hex numbers.

Do you have to calculate those numbers? Thank You for your reply!!!
It says “edit Hex Key” I just don’t know what number to input.

What programming software are you using? Everything I am familiar with uses decimal talkkgroup ID's for the WS1040.
Looking at your photos, while you have selected the talkgroups, it appears you have not selected any sites. You must select at least one site before you can import.
Thank you so much!!!!
