Default Need help with Pro-97

Hey all - just bought a Pro-97 and have a little problem.

I entered the 20 or so freqs. for the trunking system in my area
(Motorola II). I also entered a bunch (like 20 or 30) of talkgroup
IDs. The scanner is in open mode and nothing is locked out.

What happens is this - when it scans, it won't display the talkgroup
IDs unless I change the mode from FM to MO (for Motorola) for each
channel. If I do that, it ceases to stop on an active frequency when
scanning. If I set each channel back to FM mode, it scans fine as
before (but doesn't display the talkgroup ID). What am I doing wrong?
According to the manual, you're supposed to enter the trunk mode for
each channel but it doesn't seem to work properly if I do that.

Thanks.

You need to set the *bank* and the channels to Motorola Type II
trunking.



Thanks, I figured it out. I had the control channels locked-out. Don't ask.
