SETTING SQUELCH FOR THE TRUNK TRACKING MODE
Your scanner’s squelch setting is automatically adjust- ed during trunk tracking, which means it is not neces- sary to manually adjust squelch while tracking trunked transmissions. However, the squelch setting can affect how fast your scanner acquires the data channel, and, in some instances, can prevent your scanner from ac- quiring the data channel at all.
We recommend you set SQUELCH to this position before selecting a trunked bank.
Note: You can change this setting, if necessary, to pro- vide better performance in your area.
STORING TRUNKED
FREQUENCIES
Before you set up your scanner to track a trunked sys- tem, consider the following:
•Valid trunked system frequencies range from
•You can use any of your scanner’s banks as either a trunk tracking bank or conventional scanning bank, but you cannot mix the two.
•The scanner only scans one trunked system at a time. Although you can store frequencies for more than one trunked system in one of your scanner’s banks, the scanner only scans the frequencies associated with the first data channel it finds.
