TRUNK TRACKING
Your scanner is designed to track
transmissions on Motorola Type I,
Type II, and hybrid analog trunking
systems, which are extensively used
in 800 MHz communications. Remem-
ber these important points when track-
ing transmissions:
• Your scanner monitors Type II
systems by default. However, you
can change this if the system in
your area is different (see "Types
of Trunking Systems" on this page
and "Scanning Type I and Hybrid
Trunked Systems" on Page 33 for
more information).
