Can someone give me the frequencies for at least one Motorola 800 MHz
Trunking system that they know is currently active in the Los Angeles
area (West S.F. Valley)? I've tried all the ones I can find on the
Internet and can't seem to find anything that is transmitting.

I have a new BC895XLT and I'm following all the directions for
programming the trunked system scanning, including trying it at
various squelch levels, but, as I said, I haven't been able to locate
any transmissions yet. It seems to be working, but not finding
anything. And I'm assuming that these systems have their control
channels broadcasting the system ID all the time, so I should at least
be able to find the control channel, shouldn't I?

The radio will pick up non-trunking systems, so I know it's working
OK.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks.
