PRECAUTIONS
EARPHONE WARNING!
Be sure to use only a monaural earphone with this scanner. You can also use an optional stereo
headset. Use of an incorrect earphone or mono headset might be potentially hazardous to your
hearing. The output of the phone jack is monaural, but you will hear it in both headphones of a
stereo headset.
Set the volume to a comfortable audio level coming from the speaker before plugging in the
monaural earphone or headset. Otherwise, you might experience some discomfort or possible
hearing damage if the volume suddenly becomes too loud because of the volume control or
squelch control setting. This might be particularly true of the type of earphone that is placed in the
ear canal.
WATERPROOF WARNING!
Uniden does not represent this unit to be waterproof. To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock,
do not expose this unit to rain or moisture.

SCANNING LEGALLY
Your scanner covers frequencies used by many different groups, including police and fire
departments, ambulance services, government agencies, private companies, amateur radio
services, military operations, pager services, and wireline (telephone and telegraph) service
providers. It is legal to listen to almost every transmission your scanner can receive. However,
there are some transmissions that you should never intentionally listen to.
These include:
•
Telephone conversations (cellular, cordless, or other private means of telephone signal
transmission)
•
Pager transmissions
•
Any scrambled or encrypted transmissions
According to the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA), you are subject to fines and
possible imprisonment for intentionally listening to, using, or divulging the contents of such a
conversation unless you have the consent of a party to the conversation (unless such activity is
otherwise illegal). This scanner has been designed to prevent the reception of cellular telephone
transmissions and the decoding of scrambled transmissions. This is done to comply with the
legal requirement that scanners be manufactured so they are not easy to modify to pick up these
transmissions. Do not open your scanners case to make any modifications that could allow it
to pick up transmissions that are illegal to monitor. Modifying or tampering with your scanners
internal components or using it in a way other than as described in this manual could invalidate
your warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. In some areas, mobile and/or
portable use of this scanner is unlawful or requires a permit. Check the laws in your area. It is
also illegal in many areas (and a bad idea everywhere) to interfere with the duties of public safety
officials by traveling to the scene of an incident without authorization.

MAIN FEATURES
Trunk Tracker V Operation – follows conversations on analog Motorola, Motorola Astro 25
(APCO 25), P25 One-Frequency Trunk, EDACS, EDACS SCAT, and LTR trunked radio systems,
including systems in VHF, UHF, 700 MHz, 800 MHz, and 900 MHz bands.
APCO 25 Phase I and Phase II Support – allows you to receive transmissions with these
decoding protocols.
Dynamically Allocated Channel Memory – organized into ‘Systems’, ‘Sites’, (within trunking
systems), ‘Groups’ (within systems), and channels (within groups). Up to 500 systems, 1,000 total
sites (max 256 per system), 20 groups per system, and 25,000 channels (500 max IDs or 1,000
frequencies per system).
Multi-Site Trunking – lets you program the scanner to share trunked system IDs across multiple
sites without duplicating IDs, and turn each site on and off independently so that you can select
the best site to scan for your area.
Control Channel Only Scanning – allows you to enter just the control channels to trunktrack a
Motorola system and the scanner will find the voice channels.
System/Channel Number Tagging – number tags allow you to quickly navigate to a specific
system or channel. You can assign number tags to systems, channels, service searches, and
custom search ranges. You can also assign a number tag to the ‘Close Call’ system created
during ‘Close Call Auto Store’ and the temporary system ‘Close Call Hits’.
Band Scope Mode – band Scope mode is a special type of search mode where the scanner
displays the strength of any signal it finds.
Priority/Priority Plus Scan – priority channels let you keep track of activity on your most
important channels while monitoring other channels for transmissions and you can scan just the
priority channels.
Priority ID Scan – allows you to set priority to talkgroup IDs.
Preemptive Priority – a feature that works on Motorola systems. If the Motorola system has
priority channels, and you assign one of those talkgroups as priority in the scanner, then when
one of those channels becomes active, the scanner will jump to it even if it is on a different system
voice channel (i.e. it preempts your current reception).
EDACS ESK Support – provides the ability to monitor analog talkgroups on those systems.
Adjustable Scan/Search Delay/Resume – set a delay up to 30 seconds or a forced resume up
to 10 seconds. (per system or search).
Intermediate Frequency Exchange – changes the IF used for a selected channel/frequency to
help avoid image and other mixer-product interference.
Individual Channel Volume Offset – allows you to adjust the volume offset for each channel.
Control Channel Data Output – allows the analysis of control channel data without the need to
perform invasive modifications to the scanner.
Private Systems – lets you flag a system so that it cannot be read out of the scanner or modified
(only with optional software).
Key Safe Mode – lets you hand the scanner to a novice user and prevent programming from
being modified.
Start-up Configuration – you can program each of your conventional systems, trunked sites,
service searches, or custom searches with a ‘Startup Key’ (0-9) so that when you power up the
scanner and press the key number, just those systems/sites/searches assigned to the key will be
enabled for scan (groups are not affected).
Location-Based Scanning - using an optional GPS unit you can scan your systems based on a
set range from your current location.
GPS (Location-Based) Alerts - notifies you when you are near an area you have programmed as
a dangerous road, dangerous intersection, or a general point of interest.

tones being transmitted and plays Digital Coded Squelch and NAC being received.
CTCSS/DCS/NAC Search - lets you search for CTCSS, DCS, or NAC tones when it finds an
active frequency in search and close call modes.
Close Call RF Capture Technology - lets you set the scanner so it detects and provides
information about nearby radio transmissions. Close Call ‘Do-Not-Disturb’ checks for Close Call
activity in between channel reception so active channels are not interrupted.
Close Call Temporary Store - temporarily stores and scans the last 10 Close Call hits in the ‘Hits
with Scan’ system.
Fire Tone-Out Standby/Tone Search - lets you set the scanner to alert you if a two-tone
sequential page is transmitted. You can set up to 10 settings (transmit frequency, tone
frequencies) then select one for standby monitoring. The scanner will also search and display
unknown tones.
Frequency/ID Auto Search and Store - the scanner can be set to automatically store all active
frequencies from a service or limit search in a conventional system you select or automatically
store all new talkgroup IDs into a trunked system you select.
Custom Alerts - you can program your scanner to alert you when, a channel is received, you
receive a Close Call hit, a talkgroup ID is transmitted with an emergency alert, you get close to
a POI (Point of Interest)/Dangerous Road/Dangerous Crossing, or you receive a Tone-Out hit.
For each alert in the scanner, you can select from 9 different tone patterns, 15 volume settings, 2
blinking, and 2 color patterns.
Repeater Reverse - allows the scanner to try to switch to the repeater if an input when frequency
is found.

UNDERSTANDING DYNAMIC MEMORY
CONVENTIONAL SIMPLEX AND REPEATER SYSTEMS
Simplex systems use a single frequency for both transmit and receive. Most radios using this
type of operation are limited to line-of-sight operation. This type of radio is frequently used at
construction job sites, and with inexpensive consumer radios such as GMRS/FRS radios. The
range is typically 1-8 miles, depending upon the terrain and many other factors.
Repeater systems use two frequencies: one transmits from the radio to a central repeater; the
other transmits from the repeater to other radios in the system. With a repeater based system, the
repeater is located on top of a tall building or on a radio tower that provides great visibility to the
area of operation. When a user transmits (on an input frequency), the signal is picked up by the
repeater and retransmitted (on an output frequency). The user’s radios always listen for activity
on the output frequency and transmit on the input frequency. Since the repeater is located very
high, there is a very large line of sight. Typical repeater systems provide coverage out to about a
25-mile radius from the repeater location.
11
UNDERSTANDING CTCSS/DCS/NAC
Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System (CTCSS) and Digital Coded Squelch (DCS) are two
methods used to prevent interference by other radio communications. Your scanner can receive
transmissions that use these codes (or more commonly referred to as tone codes).
CTCSS and DCS systems all use some form of coded squelch. Coded squelch techniques involve
the transmission of a special ‘code’ signal along with the audio of a radio transmission. A receiver
with coded squelch only activates when the received signal has the correct ‘code’. This lets many
users share a single frequency, and decreases interference caused by distant transmitters on the
same channel. In all major metropolitan areas of the United States, every available radio channel
is assigned to more than one user. Public safety radio systems on the same frequency are usually
set up at a distance of 40 miles apart, or more. This means that you may hear transmissions from
a distant system when your local system is not transmitting. By programming the CTCSS tone
for a local channel the scanner will not stop on transmissions from the distant system. With few
exceptions, such as the VHF Aircraft and Marine bands, almost every other VHF or UHF radio
system uses some form of coded squelch. By far, CTCSS is the most popular mode among nontrunked systems.
NAC, similar to CTCSS/DCS, has a 3 digit hexadecimal code that is broadcast along with the
digital signal being transmitted.
UNDERSTANDING TRUNKING
Trunking systems let a large group of 2-way radio users (or even different groups of 2-way
radio users) efficiently use a set of frequencies. Instead of selecting a specific frequency for a
transmission, the user’s radio selects a programmed trunking bank in the system when that user
presses their PTT (push to talk) button. The trunking system automatically transmits the call on
the first available frequency, and also sends (on a different frequency called a Data or Control
channel) a code that uniquely identifies that transmission as a talkgroup ID (or just ID.) So when
you are trunktracking a system, you are listening to active IDs transmitting in the system (each
using the first available frequency in the system.) Trunking systems in general allocate and use
fewer frequencies among many different users.
Since the trunking system might send a call and its response on different frequencies, it is difficult
to listen to trunked communications using a conventional scanner. A trunktracker let you monitor
the control channel frequency so you can hear calls and responses for users and more easily
“follow” conversations than with a conventional scanner.
This trunking scanner tracks the following types of systems:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Motorola Type I
Motorola Type II
Motorola Type IIi Hybrid
Motorola Type II Smartnet
Motorola Type II Smartzone
Motorola Type II Smartzone Omnilink
Motorola Type II VOC
LTR Standard
•

Project 25 Standard
Motorola X2-TDMA
P25 Phase I and Phase II
EDACS Standard (Wide)
EDACS Narrowband (Narrow)
EDACS Networked (Wide/Narrow)
EDACS SCAT
EDACS ESK
When you program Motorola/P25 and EDACS system frequencies into the scanner, one
frequency is the control (or data) channel, and the rest are voice frequencies shared by all the
users. There may be 3 or 4 frequencies assigned as (primary or alternate) control channels but
only one control channel will be active at a time. These scanners will allow you to program just
Motorola/P25 control channels into the trunking system and the voice channels will automatically
12
be found (but not programmed). EDACS systems need all the frequencies for the system
programmed and with the correct LCN (Logical Channel Number) assigned.
The control channel continually transmits to the field units and has a sound similar to listening to
a boat engine over the phone (in manual mode; you won’t hear this when you are trunking the
system.) This control channel is also a good check to see if you can trunktrack the system. If you
can’t hear a control channel when you step through the trunking frequencies (in manual mode) or
can hear dropouts or interference, you either are too far away to receive the control channel and
the system or there is some interference source that will inhibit tracking and reception. Motorola
systems are limited to a maximum of 28 frequencies per site. EDACS systems are limited to 25
frequencies per site. Motorola and EDACS systems can be either analog, digital, or mixed (digital
and analog talkgroups). Mixed Motorola systems should be programmed as Motorola systems
and not P25 digital systems. That way the talkgroup options will allow you to select if it is a digital
or analog.
LTR systems work a little differently. LTR systems typically do not have a dedicated control
channel. This type of system encodes all trunking information as digital subaudible data that
accompanies each transmission. The frequencies also have to have the LCN (Logical Channel
Number) programmed for the scanner to trunktrack properly. Each repeater has its own controller,
and all of these controllers are synchronized together. Even though each controller monitors its
own channel, one of the channel controllers is assigned to be a master that all controllers report
to. Each of these controllers sends out a data burst approximately every 10 seconds so that the
subscriber units know that the system is there. This data burst is not sent at the same time by
all the channels, but happens randomly throughout all the system channels. If you listen to the
frequencies of an LTR system in manual mode (not trunking), on every channel in the system
you will hear this data burst that will sound like a short blip of static like someone keyed up and
unkeyed a radio within about 500 msec. LTR systems are limited to 20 frequencies per system.
UNDERSTANDING MULTI-SITE TRUNKING
Some Motorola and EDACS systems covering a very large geographic area use multiple antenna
sites that each operate on different frequencies and use the same talkgroup IDs for traffic. Each
site has its own set of trunking frequencies and is monitored like a single system. Each site can
have its own quick key, so you can turn each individual site on or off while you scan. Program your
talkgroups into channel groups within that system and all talkgroups in the system are available
to every site so they don’t have to be reprogrammed for each site. Since all sites share all the
talkgroups within the system, multi-site trunking is much more efficient than programming each
site as a separate system.

PLANNING SYSTEMS, SITES, AND GROUPS
Planning your systems will be very important even if you do have the software.
Number Tags Numbers for system and channel tags can range from 0 to 999. Systems can
have the same number tag but you will get a warning. Same warning applies to channels. You
can assign number tags to channels even if the system does not have a number tag but, without
a system number tag, you can only navigate to these channels while holding or scanning in that
system. See also Using Number Tags.
If two systems/searches have the same number tag, they will be selected in sequence (the first
time you select the number tag, the scanner will go to the first system/search assigned to that
number tag; if you select the same number tag again, it will go to the 2nd system/search assigned
29
to that number tag, and so on). The same rule applies to channel number tags (so don’t start at 1
for each channel group in the system).
Alerts You can program your scanner to alert you when, a channel is received, you receive a
Close Call hit, a talkgroup ID is transmitted with an emergency alert, you get close to a POI (Point
of Interest)/Dangerous Road/Dangerous Crossing, or you receive a Tone-Out hit. For each alert
in the scanner, you can select from 9 different tone patterns, 15 volume settings, and 2 flash
patterns.
Startup Keys You can program each of your conventional systems, trunked sites, service
searches, or custom searches with a ‘Startup Key’ (0-9) so that when you power up the scanner
and press the key number, just those systems/sites/searches assigned to the key will be enabled
for scan (groups are not effected). See also Using Startup Keys.
ENTERING TEXT
To program text, first program the system, site, group, channel, location, custom search, ToneOut, or SAME group.
To enter a letter, turn the scroll control until the character you want appears.
(character order clock-wise is upper-case, lower-case, numbers, then special characters).
•
To enter a decimal point, press .no.
•
To move the cursor to the right, press 6>.
•
To move the cursor to the left, press <4.
•
To clear a character or enter a space, press .no.
•
To clear all characters, press .no twice.
•
Press E/yes when finished to exit.
•
Press the ‘Back’ button in your browser to return to programming.
PROGRAMMING SYSTEMS
You have to create systems first, create sites in the trunking systems (where the trunking
frequencies now go), create groups in the systems, create channels in the groups, then program
the frequencies or IDs into the channels. Or, you can Quick store freqs or Quick store IDs (only
after you program the trunking system and site). Trunking IDs only go into trunking system groups
and conventional frequencies only go into conventional system groups. You can only store one
trunking system per ‘system’. You can store up to 500 systems, up to 20 groups per system, and
up to 1000 frequencies or 500 IDs per group. Total channels are limited to about 25,000. Also,
remember that conventional frequencies and IDs are considered channels.
Note for Private Systems: Using software, you can flag a system so that it cannot be read out of
the scanner, modified, or deleted. There are no settings in the scanner to do this. You can still use
the system as you would normally (system/channel lockouts/unlock, volume offset, attenuate, etc),
but you cannot access it in the menu. Also, you cannot upload the system back to the scanner
and must delete or modify it with the software.

time, the scanner evaluates the signal and, if it detects P25, it immediately opens squelch. If P25
is not detected before the delay expires, the scanner opens squelch at the end of this delay. This
prevents “false decode” problems (digital noise at the beginning of transmissions). The default
setting is 400 ms. This setting only effects conventional channels with an Audio Type set to ‘All’.
1.
Scroll to ‘P25 Wait Time’ and press E/yes.
2.
Set the Wait Time from 0 to 1000 ms and press E/yes.

USING THE BCD325P2 WITH A GPS
LOCATION-BASED SCANNING
You can connect the scanner to an optional GPS device (BC-GPSK using the BC-UTGC cable)
and set the scanner to automatically lock and unlock trunked sites and channel groups based on
the location information and range settings you program for those sites/groups. This frees you
from having to manually enable and disable sites/groups as you change location. The BCD325P2
uses the data, supplied by an (optional) attached GPS unit, that lets the radio automatically unlock
and lockout sites/groups based on latitude and longitude. It uses the (programmed) center of the
site/group, and the (programmed) range - the radius of a circle around the latitude and longitude
up to 125 miles from that center.
A good application of this feature would be to set the longitude and latitude for each multi-site
system transmitter as usually you can receive at least a handful in any given location.
You can find the physical location of antennas using the databases available at Radio Reference
or the FCC’s Antenna Structure Registration site. Both sites list the latitude, longitude, and height
of the antenna, and both sites can map the exact location for you. Radio Reference is more userfriendly, so it’s easier to find what you’re looking for.
NON RADIO LOCATION-BASED GPS FEATURES
When connected to a GPS, you can program specific location information which will trigger an
alert from the scanner. The scanner becomes an extension of the GPS device. Even if you don’t
use the scanner to scan, you can enhance you GPS unit with information the scanner provides.
The scanner also allows you to program audio and/or visual alerts for a:
Point of Interest (POI): Stores location and range. If you approach the set location, the radio
sounds an alert up to 4 miles/km from the center.
Dangerous Road/Dangerous Crossing: Stores location, direction of travel, and speed. If you
are traveling at a speed greater than that specified, in the direction specified, and if you are
within range of the set location, the scanner sounds an alert at 1, .5, and .1 miles/km from the
point. These range distances are also automatic and fixed.
You can also temporarily lockout (cancel) any combination of these alerts.
CONNECTING YOUR SCANNER
Connect BC-GPS (receiver) and BC-UTGC (cable) to USB port, following the instructions provided
with them.
The scanner displays ‘Searching for Satellite’ in GPS Display Mode until it receives the signal
from the satellite if you have your connections and baud rate set correctly. The first time the
scanner starts receiving a signal from the GPS, it beeps and briefly displays ‘GPS Connected’
and (temporary) locks and unlocks all sites and groups that are ‘enabled for scan’, unlocked,
and whose quick key is enabled according to your current location. If you have a lot of data
programmed, it might take the scanner a couple of minutes to complete the process. Once the
scanner completes the initial GPS review, if you move into or out of an area covered by a site/
48
group, the scanner beeps and displays the name of the site/group and whether it is being locked
or unlocked.
If you cycle power, all sites/groups (enabled for scan) are unlocked until the scanner reacquires
the GPS signal and completes the initial GPS review.
When the scanner does not receive GPS data, the scanner displays “No GPS Input”.

PRIORITY/PRIORITY ID/PRIORITY PLUS
SCAN
Priority Scan When scanning a conventional system, scanning is interrupted (based on the
priority check interval setting) to check priority channels for activity. The more channels you have
set to priority, the longer the interruption is. The scanner cannot scan over 100 priority channels at
once. The quick keys for the system(s) and group(s) containing the priority channel(s) have to be
enabled (and unlocked) or the scanner will display ‘Priority Scan No Channel’.
Priority Plus Scan the scanner only scans priority channels in (unlocked) conventional systems
with system and group quick keys enabled.
The highest priority is for channels in system/site and group quick key 1. The lowest priority is for
channels in system/site quick key 90 and group quick key 0. Priority for priority channels in the
same channel group follows the order in which the channels were created.
Priority ID Scan this function is similar to conventional priority although there is no interruption
during the transmission. Priority ID Scan is always on for a system if enabled in the system
setting. Priority is checked in between transmissions, when the scanner is receiving the control
channel, and during the channel delay period. The scanner can only look for priority IDs in the
trunked system it is currently scanning.
Preemptive Priority preemptive priority is a feature that works on Motorola systems. If the
Motorola system has priority channels, and you assign one of those TGs as priority in the scanner,
then when one of those channels becomes active, the scanner will jump to it even if it is on a
different system voice channel (i.e. it preempts your current reception). This feature relies on the
system itself having talkgroups assigned as priority (so the active channel information is included
on voice channel low-speed data). If a talkgroup you assign as priority is not also a priority
channel on the transmitting system, then the scanner will use standard trunking priority for the
talkgroup.
To Use Priority Scan you must first set your priority channels.
To Use Priority ID Scan you must also enable Priority ID Scan for each system.
To Edit Priority Scan Options:
1.
Press Menu.
2.
Scroll to ‘Priority Scan’ and press E/yes.
3.
Scroll to the options below and press E/yes.
4.
Press Scan/Srch to return to scanning when done with editing.
Set Priority sets the priority mode. You can also toggle these modes by pressing Func then
.no(pri) in scan mode.
1.
Scroll to 1 of 3 options and press E/yes.
Off - the priority feature is off.
On - the scanner checks conventional priority channels, and priority IDs within systems
that have priority ID enabled.
PRI - appears in the display when you select this mode.
Plus On - the scanner only scans the conventional priority channels.
PRI - flashes in the display when you select this mode.
Set Internval sets how often the scanner checks the priority channels.
1.
56
Scroll to ‘Set Interval’ and press E/yes.
Enter the number of seconds (1-10) and press E/yes to save and exit.
2.
MaxCHs/PRI-Scan sets the maximum priority channel numbers that are scanned during one
priority scan interrupt. If there are more priority channels than the value you select, the channels
are divided into more than one group and the scanner scans each group in turn. For example,
if you set the maximum channels to 20 and there are 100 priority channels, the scanner checks
those 100 channels in groups of 20 and takes a total of 5 intervals to complete the priority scan.
1.
Scroll to ‘MaxCHs/PRI-Scan’ and press E/yes.
2.
Enter the number of number of channels to check (1-100) and press E/yes to save and exit.
USING STARTUP KEYS
To Use a Startup Key:
1.
Turn the scanner off.
2.
Press and hold the number key that corresponds to the startup key when you turn the
scanner on.
3.
Continue holding the number key until the scanner display shows the number of the startup
key configuration.
When you use startup configuration, the scanner checks all systems, sites, and search ranges
and:
•
All systems, sites, or search ranges that do not have a startup key assigned will be scanned
the way they were when you last turned off the scanner.
•
All systems, sites, or search ranges that have a the startup key you pressed are unlocked.
•
All systems, sites, or search ranges that have a startup key other than the one you pressed
are locked out.
The scanner remembers the last configuration you used when you power up the scanner using
just the power key.
Caution: If you press the wrong key when you press the power key to set your startup
configuration, and that wrong key doesn’t have any systems assigned to that key, the scanner will
lock out all systems that have startup keys.
SCANNING SYSTEMS
With earlier scanners, you selected banks to scan that had channels stored in them. With this
scanner, you select ‘System Quick Keys’ to scan that have ‘Systems’, ‘Sites’, or Custom/Service
Searches assigned to them. So, now you turn ‘System/Site/Search Quick Keys’ on and off and
‘Group Quick Keys’ on and off (within each ‘System’ or ‘Site’). Turning quick keys on and off for
systems/groups/sites/searches is not the same as locking and unlocking systems/sites/searches.
You can still do that separately (if you really want to confuse yourself). See also Using Quick
Keys.
First, all (unlocked) systems/sites belonging to Quick Key 1 are scanned. Then systems/sites that
belong to Quick Key 2,…,9,0,11,…19,10,21,……,99,90 are scanned in order. Systems/sites with
the same quick key are scanned in order of creation. Systems/sites with no quick key are scanned
last and in order of creation (including created ‘Quick Save’ systems).
Groups within the systems/sites are scanned with the same rules.
Conventional channels within the groups are scanned in order of creation.
57
IDs are not really scanned. The scanner checks for any activity in the trunking system by
monitoring the control channel and and, if any ID becomes active, the scanner displays it in ‘ID
Search’ mode. In ‘ID Scan’ mode, the scanner only display IDs programmed in to groups.
Then the scanner starts any (unlocked/enabled) service searches, searching them in the menu
order. Then any (unlocked/enabled) custom searches from 1 to 10 in turn.
Then the scanner scans the system called ‘Close Call’. This system is created if you do a Close
Call ‘Auto Store’. If the ‘Close Call’ system has no frequencies, the scanner does not scan the
system.
Then the scanner scans the ‘Close Call Hits’ system (if you have unlocked it; locked out by
default). This is a system that automatically stores the frequencies found by Close Call. If the
‘Close Call Hits’ system has no frequencies, the scanner does not scan the system.
Then the scanner starts all over.
Press Scan/Srch. The scanner scans a system for the duration you set using the ‘system hold
time’ option. For trunked systems, the scanner moves to the next system after the hold time
expires, the current transmission ends, and the channel delay expires. Conventional systems

BAND SCOPE MODE
The Band Scope feature lets you have the scanner provide a visual representation of radio activity
in a frequency band. The screen is arranged with the frequencies increasing in value from left-toright, and a signal strength meter for signals. Band Scope Mode searches a frequency range and
displays the signal level in real time. You can set the center frequency and span of the frequency
range. In Hold Mode, you can monitor the displayed frequency.
The scanner rapidly sweeps between the endpoints of the selected frequency range and updates
each bar segment with the relative signal strength in each pass. You can use the band scope in
normal mode (the bars are all updated with the most recent signal strength) or ‘Max Hold Mode’
(the bars update only if there is a stronger signal than one previously stored for the current
position).
This feature allows you to get a “picture” of spectrum activity across the selected range, identify
intermittently active frequencies, check antenna performance, check coax quality, verify coverage
areas, and identify interference.
65

Search Mode ‘SRCH’ shows in the display and the scanner searches and displays the signals
of the frequency range in real time. The frequency range is shown in 32 bars determined by the
center frequency and span. While searching, the center frequency icon and the bar which shows
the current frequency blink. The scanner starts from the lowest frequency of the frequency range
and searches to the highest frequency of the frequency range. If the scanner finds a transmission,
the scanner displays the strongest and most current signal level in the bar for each frequency in
the range.
Max Hold Search Mode ‘MAX’ shows in the display and will freeze the signal strength bars at
their strongest signals.
Hold Mode ‘HOLD’ shows in the display and allows you hold the sweep then scroll to and listen

P25 Waiting Time basically gives the scanner time to determine if frequencies have digital or
analog transmissions for Quick Search, Close Call, and Band Scope operations. During this
time, the scanner will evaluate the received signal and, if it detects P25 data, will open squelch
immediately. If P25 is not detected before the delay expires, the scanner will open squelch at
the end of this delay. This is to prevent “false decode” problems (digital noise at the beginning of
transmissions). The default setting is 400 ms.

CLOSE CALL MENU
Your scanner’s Close Call feature lets you set the scanner so it detects, alerts you to, and displays
the frequency of a nearby strong radio transmission. You can set the scanner so the Close Call
feature checks for a Close Call hit every 2 seconds in the background while you are scanning or
searching or use Close Call only mode. It automatically displays the frequency. ‘Close Call DoNot-Disturb’ only checks for Close Call signals when you are not receiving transmissions. You can
also set the frequency band(s) where you want the scanner to look for transmissions. When the
scanner detects a Close Call hit, it alerts you according to the override and alert settings. You can
also set the scanner to Auto Store Close Call hits.
‘Hits with Scan’ is a special system that automatically stores the last 10 Close Call hits until you
cycle power. The system ‘Close Call’ is created when you run a Close Call Auto Store.
The Close Call feature works well for locating the source of strong local transmissions such
as mobile and handheld two-way radios in areas with no other strong transmission sources.
76
Several factors affect Close Call performance. Performance is increased with higher transmit
power, receive antenna tuned to the target band, and a low background RF level. Other than the
antenna, you have no control over these factors, but they explain why performance might vary
by both location and time. The Close Call feature works better with some types of transmissions
than others. It might not correctly display frequency information for transmitters using a highly
directional antenna (such as an amateur radio beam antenna) or if there are many transmitters
operating at the same time in the same area.

Programming SAME Groups SAME (Specific Area Messaging System) is a system developed
by the National Weather Service to reduce the number of alerts received by consumers by
allowing them to hear alerts only for the county(ies) they are interested in. Each alert contains
information about the type and severity of the alert, as well as the specific geographic locations
affected by the alert. In addition, certain special regions and wildcard settings can be assigned.
Your scanner can receive all SAME alert signals broadcast within about a 50-mile radius of where
you use it.
To receive SAME alerts and broadcasts about weather occurring only in particular counties
within that area, you can program up to 5 groups of 8 FIPS codes (40 codes) into the scanners
memory. This lets you avoid hearing an alert that applies to an area within a 50-mile radius but not
necessarily to your county or parish.
For the purpose of broadcasting weather information, the NWS has divided the United States into
regions by state and county (or parish, where applicable) then assigned a 6-digit FIPS code to
identify each county or parish. For example, the code for Tarrant County, Texas, is 048439. The
first digit in a FIPS code identifies the county subdivision, the next two digits identify the state,
81
and the last three digits identify the county or parish. Most FIPS codes begin with 0, which means
the code represents an entire county. The NWS, however, plans to eventually subdivide some
large counties. When that happens, each subdivision will be assigned a digit from 1-9, resulting in
codes such as 148439, 248439, and so on.
To obtain the FIPS code for the location where you installed your scanner call the NWS toll free at
1-888-697-7263 (follow the instructions you hear).
FIPS codes are in the format nSSCCC:
n: A special subcounty designator. For an entire county, use 0.
SS: The state code.
CCC: The county code.

Key-Safe Mode
This mode prevents accidental programming changes and prevents anyone from changing
modes. Some keys don’t work in this mode. SQ, Vol/Light, the scroll control
, Vol/Light,
the scroll control, Function Mode, and Hold all still work in their primary functions. The scanner
only operates in one mode; the mode the scanner was in when the radio was last turned off. So, if
you turned the scanner off in Close Call mode and turn it back on in Key-Safe mode, that’s the
mode you’re stuck with.
To turn Key-Safe mode on or off press and hold Func then turn on the scanner. The first time
(only) you turn on the scanner in Key-Safe mode you will see ‘Key Safe Mode On’.
In the following tables, keys with numbers in each mode refer to the legend below each chart.
Keys (or Function + keys) with an ‘X’ will not work in that mode and will give you the ‘Key-Safe’
display. Keys with blank cells work as normal for each mode.

Type II Special Status Bits
Type II Motorola Smartnet systems use these status bits for special transmissions such as
emergency, patches, DES/DVP scrambled transmissions, and multiselects. Motorola trunking
radios directly interpret them for their special functions, thus no difference is noticed by the person
with the radio. The scanner however interprets these special talk group status bits as different talk
groups entirely. Below is the conversion chart for these special status bits.

Therefore, if a user was transmitting a multi-select call on talkgroup 1808, the scanner would
actually receive those transmissions on 1815. Some common uses of these status bits are as
follows:
•
When a user hits their emergency button, all conversations on the talkgroup revert to
the emergency status talkgroup (ID+2) until the dispatch clears the emergency status.
Therefore, if someone hit their emergency button and their radio was on talkgroup 16, all
communications would switch to talkgroup 18.
•
A lot of Fire and EMS departments dispatch tone-outs and alarms as Multi-select
communications (ID+7). Therefore, if your fire department dispatch talkgroup is 1616, and
they do dispatch tone-outs and alarms as Multi-selects, then those communications will be
on talkgroup 1623.

Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System (CTCSS) and Digital Coded Squelch (DCS) are two
methods used to prevent interference by other radio communications. Your scanner can receive
transmissions that use these codes.
CTCSS and DCS systems all use some form of coded squelch. Coded squelch involves the
transmission of a special code signal along with the audio of a radio transmission. A receiver with
coded squelch only activates when the received signal has the correct code. This lets many users
share a single frequency, and decreases interference caused by distant transmitters on the same
channel. In all major metropolitan areas of the United States, every available radio channel is
assigned to more than one user.
