Sorry Chuck. I have heard for others they do this, but we don't carry RS 
scanners and I haven't worked one. The impression I get  is this is done 
using software. But I am not a RS trunking enthusiast. Maybe someone also 
here that has a 96 and monitored the system would be better to ask this 
question.
