I am listening to CMPD on a BC895.  I have never seen anything about
toggleing the status bit on this rcvr.  Any suggestions on how this might be
accomplished?  Most tg's that have the status bit on are tg+3.  It's kinda
aggravating to have to program 8691 & 8688 just to hear the same tg.  Mem
channels were about full before & now is even worse since it appears all
districts are using +3 on their dispatch channels.
I remember reading something about changing the fleet map to rx the entire
group (with & without bits enabled), but have not found a workable combo.
