programming Motorola trunking systems
(UHF-Lo)
You can program the scanner to receive transmissions
in the UHF-Lo band (406-512 MHz) of the Motorola
trunking system. You can receive these transmissions
by checking the trunking system’s control channel. You
must program the system’s base frequency and offset
frequency to do this.
Base and offset frequencies vary for each type of
trunking system. You can get information about
these frequencies for the trunking system you
want to scan using www.trunkscanner.com, other
Internet sources, or locally published guidebooks.
If you try to program an offset frequency in the UHF-Hi
bands (806-960 MHz), the scanner ignores the entry.
Follow these steps to program Motorola trunking
frequencies in the UHF-Lo band:
1. Press PROG then TRUNK to enter the ID program
mode.
2. Press FUNC and press (or hold) e or d to select the
bank.
3. Press MODE and select MOT.
