Re: HELP with trunk programming

You do not have it set up right for trunking.  Go to
RadioReference.com and select the RR Database on the left hand side. 
Select your state then county.  Pick the system your looking for and
program the frequencies and talk groups you want to receive. For a
trunk system you need at least the four control channel frequencies,
you can do without the rest of them if you use control channel only
trunking.  If you do you will have to select a plan.  Also you will
have to set the scanner for the type system your programing.  Best bet
is to use software or read the manual more on trunking.

If you have come here to find out about the 785D you have come to the right place! In fact the discussion of the BC-785D and how it works is the only acceptable topic on this list. Any discussion about anything other than the BC-785D is OFF TOPIC. I hope this is clear to all group members..
