[FARC] Fw: Scanner help?

[M. K. Hess]

Folks,

 

As the poster has stated this is a TRUNKING capable scanner, so it is indeed
P25/digital ready.

 

Emily, I am the Lead Verification Engineer at Thales Communications, on
their Project Liberty, which is a P25/Digital/Trunking, Public Service
radio.

I also own a Bearcat/Uniden BCD996XT Full Mode Trunking/P25/Conventional
scanner..

 

I'm SURE I can help you get your RS programmed and running. Get in touch and
let's see what we can do!

If it is a radio shack scanner then Radio shack should be able to program it
for you in the store. They did my Pro-97 scanner when I bought it years ago.

 

At the Mt Airy Radio Shack they used to have a computer out in the middle of
the store dedicated to doing that, they don't any longer. I'll have to ask
next time I'm in. But I'd suggest going back to the store from where you
bought it & asking.

 

If it is a Pro-97 I have the software to program it but we'd have to pay for
a subscription to the frequency site: http://www.scannermaster.com/ to
download the frequencies for the area of interest. Once we have the file in
the correct format we just need to use the software & cable to program the
scanner.

Hello there,
I'm an UBER beginner and have had a Radio Shack scanner (with trunking) but
am such a novice I can't get anything but the NOAA weather reports, and the
instruction manual is all Greek to me :). Is there any place locally that
you guys know of where I could take it in and get it programmed to the local
frequencies and a quick hands on lesson? (Radio Shack proved to be less than
helpful)

Thanks for your advice!
Emily
