Setting the Squelch
Since Squelch is automatically adjusted in trunking mode,
it isn’t necessary to manually adjust the squelch control
while trunk tracking. However, the squelch setting you
select before you begin trunk tracking can affect how fast
your scanner acquires the data channel, and, in some
instances, the squelch setting can prevent your scanner
from acquiring the data channel at all.
Set SQUELCH in this
position before
selecting a
trunking bank.
Note: You can
change this
recommended setting,
if necessary, to
provide better
performance in
your area.
Programming Trunking Frequencies
Before you start programming your scanner to track a
trunked system, consider the following:
n
You can only program one trunking system in each
bank of your scanner.
n
Trunking frequencies must be entered while in the
Trunking Programming mode.
n
If you’re in the Trunking Programming mode, you
cannot select channels in other banks.
For example, if you are programming Bank 4, you
can only select channels 91-120 with the
or keys.
n
IMPORTANT: If you are programming an EDACS
®
trunked system, you must enter the frequencies in
a specific order. Check the frequency guide
included with the radio and the listed web sites
for details.
