My first one had a typo that may confuse you.

This is the resent version

This will work with EDACS and LTR, use the 250 because I know it works
with that radio, I see no reason it would not work with the PRO 96,
however if you use the 96 leave the first channel blank ie 000, 100,
200, 300 start with ch 1 ie 001, 101, 201  The 96 will tell you the LCN
# of the control channel so you have one the LCNs right off the bat. 

Pick one freq from your EDACS or LTR system.

Program that freq into the first 20 channels of bank one, yes the same
freq 20 times.

Scan that bank.

When a conversation appears on a channel press hold and note the channel
no. ie 003 or 011 whatever.  That will correspond to the LCN #  so 003
would be LCN 3 or 011 would be LCN 11

Now pick the next freq, put that freq in every channel except the first
on you found so if it was 003 leave the original freq in 003.  So you
will enter the 2nd freq 19 times.

Scan that bank

When a conversation appears on a channel press hold and note the channel
no. ie 005 or 013 whatever.  That will correspond to the LCN #  so 005
would be LCN 5 or 013 would be LCN 13

Continue the process until you have done this with every freq on the
system in the end you will know the LCNs for all of the freqs.

One note if you hear more than one control channel on your EDACS system
on the air at the same time then it is a multisite system and needs to
be programmed in two different banks
