SCANNING A TRUNKED
BANK
You can scan one trunked bank at a
time. Once you have stored frequen-
cies for a trunked system in one or
more of the 10 available banks and
you are scanning non-trunked fre-
quencies, follow these steps to begin
trunk scanning.
1. Press
TRUNK

all banks flash.
2. Use the number keys to enter the
number for the trunked bank you
want to scan, then press
SEARCH

data channel (the channel that
controls the trunk).
SEARCH
flashes as the scanner searches
for a data channel. When the
scanner finds it, it begins trunk
tracking.
If you entered all of the trunk’s fre-
quencies, you should be able to
follow conversations between
broadcasters even when they
change frequencies. IDs, which
represent different service groups,
appear.
