locking out talk group IDs
Many municipal and commercial services use trunk systems to transmit signals from such
devices as water meter transmitters, door alarms, and traffic signals. Some signals are
encrypted, as well, and most are not voice signals. Since all these are assigned IDs just like
other users, you may want to lock out reception of these ID signals. The scanner allows that
you lock out up to 50 IDs for each trunk scanning bank. If you use all the banks as trunking
banks, you can lock out up to 2000 IDs at one time.
Note:
•
If you lock out an ID while searching, it is also locked out of the scan list(s). See “using talk
group ID lists.”
