[TrunkCom] UHF LTR programming on BC250D and monitoring

[Jeff Kenyon]

Oh, I knew that, but I just couldn't get it to enter in talk groups, and
when I would hit manual like on Moto or EDACS it went to conventional mode,
and for the systems and TGS I wanted to program that were LTR I know now I
got things in the right order to hear what I was wanting to monitor.  Can
someone please E-mail me off list to tell me what menu selection to go to
for TG programming?
