Programming the G5

[goodmore]

OK. I got the G5 for Christmas. In fact it isn't even here yet. Something about inventory between the holidays. Oh well....I figure I would take the time to learn PPS.

Here is my question...I have a P25 trunk phase 1 system with 5 towers. I assume I would need to program all 5 towers into the PPS to hear all the county traffic. I would then narrow it down through the channels. So how do I program all 5 towers? They are all under the same system alias. I can't list them all individually under the site list because they have the same RFSS ID and PPS wont take them even though the site ID numbers are different.

Lancaster County PA if that helps.

If I list only the closest tower I won't here everything. I plan to use it in my vehicle as I travel around the county.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What specific error message are you getting? It sounds like you are on the right track but the software should not be giving you any problems about entering multiple sites with the same RFSS and different site numbers.

Attached is a sample file I made up quickly with the Lancaster County P25 system. You should be able to import this into PPS using Profile Import/Export. I didn't have any trouble adding several sites, so hopefully you can compare and see what you are doing differently.

Thank you. With your help I figured it out. Thanks again.
