Hi All,

Long time scanner............., trunking virgin.

Using Uniden BC785D without the digital card and am using ARC250pro and
IDtracker software for computer control.

I have done a normal search and logged the repeater frequencies in the
designated trunking band for my area for two days and have come up with 10
frequencies including a couple of "birdie" channels (control?) that seem to
be used.
Sometimes I hear both sides of a conversation, other times just one.

I'm struggling to get these to trunk in my scanner.

I have chosen "Motorola type II uhf" as the system for the bank

I am having difficulty trying to figure out the "base frequency" (lowest
logged?), and the offset. (I know the step is 12.5khz)

I have loaded them into bank 1, and set the band & frequencies as "trunk",
but when I push scan I hear nothing, when I switch over to search there is
activity)

Also, how do I figure out the ID's ? (Id tracker just comes up with the
frequencies)

Any "un-gobbledeegook" advice appreciated.

Also....Any New Zealand scanners lurking here??


Ummm - yes
