Understanding Scanning and the BCD996T
I-Call (Motorola/EDACS)
I-calls are direct unit-to-unit transmissions that are not heard by other system
users. Your BCD996T can receive I-call transmissions. See “Setting I-Call
(Motorola and EDACS Systems Only)” on Page 72 for more information about
monitoring I-call transmissions.
Where To Get More Information
By itself, this manual only provides part of what you need to know to have fun
scanning — how to program and use the scanner. Other sources provide
additional information.
Information On The Internet
The Internet is the best source for current frequencies and information about
scanning. Many web sites are dedicated to providing lists of frequencies for your
area. Many have built-in database search engines to assist you.
Make a list of the agencies you want to listen to, then look up the frequencies and
systems used by those agencies. Here are a few useful sites:
