[TrunkCom] the new dynamic memory and larning curvewith programming

[William Richarz]

To program 3-10 frequencies or so, it's not that hard.  Or
to just add a single frequency from time to time is easy.
That's what I do.  Once you know how to get through the scanner
menus to do whatever you want, then just adding or deleting or
editing your scanner is quite easy.  But to put in 25-200 individual
frequencies will wear you out.  If I haven't done a particular change, etc.,
then I might have to go to the book, as bad as the instructions are.
The Butel and Radio Reference is the only way to go to put in a
Trunking network in my opinion.
