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 Dave, The "+" is the OPEN MODE. The scanner scans signals transmitted in all systems. The "-" the scanner stops on the signals that have an ID code that you programmed into the scanner. Like a number for a talkgroup for Motorola scanning. If you are scanning an EDACS system, you MUST have the frequencies in the correct order, usually what I do is place the EDACS system in one bank and start the bank, leaving the top channel in the bank empty. Like bank # 3, channel 300 is left unprogrammed. To change the "-" to a "+" press MANUAL, press FUNC the use the up/down arrows to select the bank. Press FUNC the 5. The screen should say "bank open" or "bank closed". Hope this helps. BTW, you might want to consider the best software anywhere for your scanner, so you don't have to program your scanner manually. Here is the link, just click on WIN97. http://www.starrsoft.com/ |
