[Scan-DC] Andrews AFB Trunked System

[N3BXV]

Larry,

  Can you provide any more information on setting up the Pro-96 to track
these systems?  This is the first I've heard of the Pro-96 being able to do
that and I would very much like to be able to set up mine instead of having
to get (yet) another scanner.

Thanks,
Chuck

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.
