Default EDACS setup help

I was reading the statement below from the Butel software user guide:

When you program EDACS frequencies, it is critical that you store each
frequency
in the correct location. This often is not the frequency order, so youmust
be sure
you have the right sequence.
What location are they referring to how do you determine this location ?

What I have done if program them in the LCN as they are below.

If my lcn is:

001 Confirmed LCN01 453.22500* 02 453.80000 03 460.25000 04 460.35000 05
460.45000 06 460.20000*

I have them entered in the bank on bank 3 starting at ch 301.

What would I have to change, I thought this should be in order of LCN as the
type II system I have

working on the scanner ??

This is an EDACS standard which should be wide, I have the WFM setup on the
LCNs too.

I have tried narrow but nothing.

Suggestions ??

I dont have a ch 00 in the bank, they start say 301, 302 ect..

I can hear the channels analog side but when the freqs are set to trunk
they do not pick up anything.

I can get a 800 trunk II to trunk but not the EDACS..I called Uniden but
they are useless..
They dont even want to walk you through one program.

Do you have the frequencies entered in LCN Order starting in channel *01
(not *00) in the bank in question?

Hey there guys -

I have a BC796D and I have set up the trunk section, control
channels...in order but it will not log a call
in the trunk mode and no IDs are shown..

I can only receive on each control channel, trunk off and I do NOT see
any IDs.

The system I am trying to monitor says its EDACS standard which from
what I read is EDACS-wide.
I have tried EDACS-narrow too..no luck with any ID information
trunking.

I can send screen shots as an attachment if someone would be willing
to look at the config.

Thanks
John
