Trying to Trunk on my Pro-90 in Galveston

[McInnis03]

I've programmed all the frequencies into my Radioshack Pro-90 trunktracker scanner that I found in the Galveston section on this site. When I trunk the bank that contains all the frequencies, it seems I get very limited traffic. On the other hand, if I simply scan that bank normally (just running through the individual frequencies) I get a TON of conversations although they're impossible to follow because they're not trunking. What am I doing wrong, why is the trunking not working?

Can anyone help with my problem?

I may have figured it out. I had all the galveston frequencies in there and I also (unknowingly) had the 5 Galveston STARNet frequenices in the same bank. It seems now that I deleted the 5 STARnet frequencies, I'm picking up a TON of traffic now.

I did try to put the starnet frequencies in a different bank, but I cannot trunktrack that bank. I'm not sure why.

With the PRO 90 you'll only be able to trunk track one system at a time. So either the Galveston system OR Starnet.

To switch between them, program one system in bank 1 and the second in bank 2. Make sure you follow the manual to program them as trucked frequencies.

To listen to the first system press TRUNK twice (until the bank numbers at the top of the screen start flashing) then press 1. To switch to the other system press TRUNK again but this time hit 2.

I don't have mine in front of me but this should be pretty close.

Hey Flash you are correct that is the way I do mine
