I have a Radio Shack Pro 97

Right now all that I am getting are my VHF frequencies and not my
800mhz.

I noticed that the VHF have a + below the chanel number and the 800
have a - (minus).

What did I push to create this problem? And how do I undo my mistake.

Thanks
Dave


Select the bank with the - sign under it and press the F key and then
the . (Dot/Delay) key to open (+) & close (-) the bank. A Open Bank
receives all talk groups and conventional transmissions regardless of
settings. A closed trunked system receives only talk groups in your talk
group list and a closed conventional system will only receive
transmissions on channels with PL's or DCS set to a certain PL.

For example

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
- + + + - + - + + +

Bank 0 and 6 are closed

Bank 0 is a closed conventional bank

000 CT 460.475 100.0
001 FM 460.075
002 DC 153.770 021

Only transmissions with a PL 100.0 on channel 000 will be recieved,
all transmissions on 001 will be received even if they have a PL or DC
code. In channel 002 only transmisssions with a DC code of 021 will be
received by the radio.

Bank 6 that is closed is a Motorola Type II system

600 MO 856.7775
601 MO 857.7775
602 MO 858.7775
600 MO 859.7775

Two Talk Groups IDS are entered into the talk groups list
58800 Police Dispatach
58816 Police Tactical

Only the two talk groups will be heard and all other talk groups will be
ignored.

When a bank is open (+) all transmissions will be heard regardlesss of
talk groups ID's or PL/DCS codes used.

To listen to one talk group wait for activity on the talk group and
press the PSE key to *PAUSE* the radio.
