need to program only the system control channel frequencies: those are the frequencies shown
in red (for primary control channels) and blue (for alternate control channels) in the database.
For EDACS and LTR systems, you will need to program all the listed frequencies and their
associated LCN (that is a small number right next to the frequency). Some systems have
multiple sets of frequencies. These are called multi-site systems: each set of frequencies
corresponds to a different physical antenna site.
Talk Group IDs (Channels)
The Talk Group information section (inside the green rectangle) shows the different channels
on the system and which agency uses them. You'll need to go through the list and make a note
of the channels you want to hear. Then you can start thinking about how you want to organize
those channels.
(Keep in mind that this screenshot shows just a few of the channels on a single system. One of
the great features available to subscribers on RadioReference is the ability to tag channels
directly on the site and print out a nicely-formatted hardcopy of each system. It makes this task
much, much easier.)
