I've read in another forum about the TRX that adding a wildcard in the Radio ID allows you to do this. But I don't know if you can do this in your scanner.
You can tell the radio via programming that it is a trunk system or at least you can with the trx models you then enjoy the added benefits of adding names to radio id’s and private messages.
To monitor private calls with my 1088, I either check the RadioID box in the menu for that particular object, or change the set item for squelch from Talkgroup ID to Radio ID.
It's interesting to note that doing this not only opens up the radio to private calls, but it also still allows all group TGs to pass through as well. Because of this, I keep all my DMR conventional frequencies on the Radio ID setting.
What he says in Post 6. How I do it with my 1088. This also works with P-25 conventional.

What he's describing is programming the radio under the "trunked systems" tab. There are many perks to doing this, but you'll sacrifice about a second of your scan time just to monitor one particular frequency.
This can be done, especially because on a Whistler the radio will monitor the trunked system by conventionally scanning the frequencies.
I figured out how to program a conventional DMR one frequency as a "one frequency trunked" system. It is coming up with the wildcard! now so I guess I did it right. Now I'm just waiting for the dispatcher to say "Go to ten"; then we'll see if this work-around is correct.
