Set P25 NAC. The scanner opens squelch only for signals that include the programmed NAC.

At Input P25 NAC, see Data Naming.

P25 Waiting Time (Conventional Only) – This setting gives the scanner time to determine if channels on Conventional Systems have digital or analog transmissions. During this time, the scanner will evaluate the received signal and, if it detects digital data, will open squelch immediately. If digital is not detected before the delay expires, the scanner will open squelch at the end of this delay. This is to prevent “false decode” problems. This setting only affects conventional channels with an Audio Type set to All. The default setting is 400 ms.

0 to 1000

Note: Any analog transmissions will lose the first part of the transmission, up to the wait time you set here.
