ID Search Mode

Once you have programmed all the frequencies for a trunked system, Search will let you immediately start hearing transmissions.

When in the Trunking mode, press SRCH and the scanner begins to find any active IDs. When the scanner finds any ID, you will hear it.

Talkgroups display differently in Motorola, EDACS and LTR systems. You should read the appropriate parts of this guide to understand the formats.

The display indicates the bank and the type of trunked system you are monitoring. While monitoring on ID, press the key, and the scanner will check if any other IDs are active.

Regardless of the system, you won't know exactly who you are receiving until you listen for a while. Of course, figuring out who each ID represents is half the fun of Trunk Tracking.

Later, when you learn more about a system, you will want to store lists of talkgroups. Then you can scan specific agencies and users, and use the many other features your radio provides.
