Searching A Trunked Bank; Changing The Display Mode - Uniden BC 245XLT Owner's Manual

Searching a Trunked Bank

If programming a Type I system, you cannot Scan the
trunking bank you just programmed unless you enter talk
groups into memory. See ahead for details. With the
search function, you'll be able to find all the active talk
groups within the trunked system.
Once the data
channel is acquired,
the scanner begins

group ID's, which
represent different
service groups, begin
to display.
While searching, you won't know exactly who the ID's are
assigned to unless you listen awhile or until ID lists are
available in frequency guides or on internet sites. However,
it usually only takes a few minutes to figure out police, fire,
