Radio Shack PRO-96 Owner's Manual page 82

Configure the channel storage bank ID list for the type of trunking system being
monitored, and
Enter ID codes into the ID memory for the bank
For detailed trunked system programming instructions, see "Programming Trunked
Systems" on Page 32 and "Storing Talkgroup IDs" on Page 38
Your PRO-96 automatically calculates Motorola and APCO-25 trunking system voice
channel frequencies while decoding the control channel. This eliminates the need to
enter all the Motorola system frequencies.
The control channels for some Motorola trunked radio systems may change on a
day-to-day basis. To ensure that you will not miss traffic when the control channel
changes, enter all the known control channel frequencies into the channel storage bank.
If the control channel changes, your scanner will automatically lock on to the new control
channel. If you do not know which system channels are used for the control channel
operation, we recommend that you enter all the system frequencies into the same bank.
(Refer to the supplied Trunking Guide).
When the scanner decodes the Motorola control channel and finds talkgroup activation
on a voice channel, the scanner displays the control channel memory location on the top
line, the received frequency with VC (voice channel) on the second line, the bank and
control channel memory location number on the third line and the Motorola talkgroup ID
number on the bottom line.

IMPORTANT
To listen to the transmission, the mode setting of the trunking control or system channels
must match the mode setting of the associated ID list (MOT for Motorola and APCO-25,
or ED for EDACS).
When an ID code is received, the ID list for the bank is searched, and if found, the text
name stored for the ID appears in the scanner's display. If not found, scanning resumes
immediately unless the bank is in open trunking mode.
