Programming the Base and
Offset Frequencies
To properly track Motorola VHF and UHF trunked sys-
tems, you must program the applicable
base
and
offset
frequencies for each system.
A list of these frequencies can be found at
www.trunk-
scanner.com
and other similar frequency resources.
1. Set the scanner for conventional scanning. Press
PROG
then
TRUNK
.
2. Press the number key of the bank where you want
to store the base frequency.
3. Repeatedly press
V
or
W
to select
E2-VHi
or
E2-UHF
, then press
E
. A previously programmed
trunked frequency appears
4. Press
DATA (ALT)
. The preset base frequency
appears.
5. Enter a desired frequency.
6. Press
DATA
(ALT)
. The preset offset frequency
appears.
7. Enter the frequency using the number keys accord-
ing to the following guide:
• For Motorola Type II VHF, (E2-VHF Hi band) use
5kHz steps between 5 kHz – 100 kHz.
• For Motorola Type II UHF, (E2-UHF band) use
12.5kHz steps between 12.5 kHz – 100 kHz.
Programming a Hybrid System
A hybrid system is simply a Type I system with some of
its blocks designated as Type II blocks. To program a
hybrid system, follow the steps listed in “Programming
a Fleet Map” on Page 60. However, if you want a block
to be Type II, instead of pressing
V
or
W
to select the
size block (Step 7), enter size code
S-0
instead.
