Re: 380 MHz Federal Trunk System

I'm barking up the wrong tree, thanks for pointing me in the right
direction.  And you are correct, it'll take new firmware to track
those systems.  Do you hear anything in FM?

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..
