Recent trunk frequency scanning problems?

[Fireman488 57]

Has anyone had trunk frequency scanning problems recently?

Minimal radio traffic and when received only parts of conversations.

I inputted two new trunk frequencies from 60-Control, but that hasn't fixed the problem.

Feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!

Chief,

Have you added the second custom table for the South Zone? See Custom Tables at RadioReference.com. The second table will allow your scanner to track the 470.2000MHZ freq which seems to be the new "primary" freq used for the South Zone. If you only have the table with 476.0, your scanner will not be able to track the new 470.2000MHz freq.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Steve.

We were able to correct our Uniden scanners.

We are still having software programming problems with our Radio Shack scanners. The software doesn't seem to allow a second table.

Thanks,

Syd

Thanks to SteveOFD and TR54 for your feedback, based on which, I believe we have both the Uniden and Radio Shack scanners corrected.

Thanks again,

Syd
