You can monitor the voice channels (they are P25 and the 796 will decode 
that). You just can't trunk track this implicit system. Only a Pro96 setup 
with special tables, the new Uniden 996 and I believe the 396 can handle 
that chore. But you can monitor and decode the P25 voice channels all live 
long day. ;-)))

Have a great one and a fun weekend to all heading to the Andy Airshow.
