Programming and Receiving Trunked Systems Programming Trunking Frequencies The first step in tracking a trunked system is storing the frequencies in one of the 10 available banks in your scanner. Remember that you can only store one trunking system in each bank. Important: If you are programming an EDACS or LTR trunked system, you must enter the frequencies in a specific order. Check the frequency guide included with the scanner for the frequencies in your area. For additional frequencies, check the web sites listed on page 5. 1. Press MENU. 2. Press or to select TRUNK DATA and then press E. 3. Press or to select the bank no. and then press E. 4. Press or to select the TRUNK TYPE and then press E. Remember! You can also use the VFO control for scrolling. Also instead of pressing E, you can press the VFO/SELECT control or press the SELECT/MUTE key. 5.

The first step in tracking a trunked system is storing the frequencies in one of the 10
available banks in your scanner. Remember that you can only store one trunking system in
each bank.
Important
:
If you are programming an EDACS or LTR trunked system, you must enter the
frequencies in a specific order. Check the frequency guide included with the
scanner for the frequencies in your area. For additional frequencies, check the
web sites listed on page 5.
