We recommend you set SQUELCH to
the position shown here before select-
ing a trunked bank.
Note: Change this setting as neces-
sary to get the best performance in
your area.
PROGRAMMING
TRUNKED
FREQUENCIES
Before you program your scanner to
track a trunked system, consider the
following:
• Valid trunked system frequencies
are as shown below.
Motorola system:
935.0125–939.9875 MHz
(in 12.5 kHz steps)
851.0000–868.9875 MHz
(in 12.5 kHz steps)
406.0000–512.0000 MHz
(in 12.5 kHz steps)
137.0000–174.0000 MHz
(in 5 kHz steps)
Ericsson EDACS system:
900.0000–956.000 MHz
(in 12.5 kHz steps)
806.0000–899.9875 MHz
(in 12.5 kHz steps, except
cellular frequencies)
406.0000–512.0000 MHz
(in 12.5 kHz steps)
137.0000–174.0000 MHz
(in 5 kHz steps)
• You can use any of your scanner’s
banks as either a trunk scanning
bank or conventional scanning
bank, but you cannot mix the two.
• The scanner only scans one
trunked system at a time. Al-
though you can store frequencies
for more than one trunked system
in one of your scanner’s banks,
the scanner only scans the fre-
quencies associated with the first
data channel it finds.
Before scanning a trunked system’s
transmissions, you must store the
trunked system’s frequencies in one of
the banks in your scanner by following
these steps.
1. Set the scanner for conventional
scanning, then hold down TRUNK
until the scanner beeps twice.
BANK , TRUNK , and the bank
numbers flash.
2. Press a number key to select the
bank for the trunked system’s fre-
quencies. To select a bank
between 11 and 20, press
SHIFT
then the number keys. The scan-
ner displays one of six system
types.
3. Use ▲ or ▼ to select the system
type, then press E .
