Video Request: Trunking Discovery

[ofd8001]

I thought I'd throw out a request for the 536 gurus to see if they could create a video walking through a trunking system Discovery Session.

I know this would be most helpful to me and I'm sure many others would welcome it too.

Thanks!

Give this one a try: Uniden BCD536HP Trunked Discovery Feature - YouTube

That was exactly what I was hoping for! I had found the conventional one he did, but the trunked one must have been right in front of me so I couldn't see it.

I was having trouble setting up a trunked discovery session. I entered the system name, but the scanner not find it. Then I figured out the problem. I added "Sxx" at the beginning of my system names to help with quick key identification purposes. When I entered this "Sxx", it went perfectly. Probably something for others who alos incorporate quick key information in system names, to note.

Thanks for helping me out!

It appears that you have to type in a system name when you start Trunking Discovery mode. Why would the radio not simply show a list of active systems and allow you to choose one? Or is it for a different purpose altogether?
