Judging by your monitoring location and the coverage of the Stanislaus Regional system, you should be well within their reception range. So unless you live in an underground bunker, you should be able to receive this system without trouble even with the original antenna.
Try starting with a clean PSREdit file before importing from RR. Anyway, here's your step-by-step instructions:
- Open PSREdit500 and select Import, Import Data from RadioReference.com, and Trunked Data.
- Enter your RR User Name, Password, and click on Query RR Web Service.
- Select United States, California, and Stanislaus County (check remember these).
- Drop down Trunked Radio System list to find Stanislaus Regional 911.
- Click on Transmitter Site Selection tab to confirm the one site listed is checked.
- Click on Talkgroup Selection tab and click on Select All to select all talkgroups (ensure All Agencies is displayed next to Agency Grp).
- Click Import System
- Check the desired Scan Lists you want to populate with this system (01 is checked by default).
- Open the Talkgroup Configuration tab to ensure that all desired talkgroups are present. Leave all else alone.
- Click on Complete the Import Using these Settings button.
- You should see a popup saying Imported 1 TSYS and 13 TGRP objects. Click OK.
- Open the Trunking Object tab and you will see all imported talkgroups.
- Click on the Edit button and you will be able to view the system settings as well as the one primary control channel. Leave everything alone here for now. Click Cancel to exit without making any changes.
- Connect your scanner and computer.
- Click on Radio, Upload to Radio, and Yes.
- You’re done.
- Or should be.
- Good Luck!
When beginning the process with a new file, uploading this system to the radio ensures all other programming will be erased. Remember to save your PSREdit file. Test this P25 system to verify reception. If all is good, now you can import and upload any conventional frequencies. Just remember that when doing so, start from the file you just created or you will erase the P25 system you just uploaded.
