Uniden BC250D Scanner User Manual


 
7:MODE
Default Auto receive modes are also
programmed into memory. AM for aircraft and
CB bands, for example. All frequencies (other
than audio TV broadcast) above 400 MHz are
received in NFM mode which helps prevent
adjacent channel interference. You can
change the default settings on a per-channel
basis with this Menu item.
2:TRUNK
Choose the Trunk bank. The following options are
available for the selected trunk bank only. Repeat
using a different trunk bank, if necessary.
1:TRUNK TYPE
You will need to assign the correct trunking
type for the bank you are about to program.
If you want to listen to a Motorola Type I
system, you will need to use this Menu option
to assign the same. If you do not know the
type of trunking system you are about to
monitor, refer to the guide included with the
scanner or check out www.bearcat1.com.
Note: Some trunking systems require that you
know the channel order. In these cases
you will also need to start programming
the trunked system at the start of the
bank. The scanner defaults to the most
common type of trunking system,
Motorola Type II 800.
2:TRUNK CHANNEL
1:FREQUENCY
To use Trunk Tracking, you need to
program a frequency for at least one
channel. Also you can enter an alpha
tag for each channel in this Menu.
2:STEPS
You can assign a variety of step sizes
to the channel.
3:TALK GROUP
You can program IDs into the Scan List
memory either during Trunk Scan or Search
without going into the Menu. However, you
can also use the Menu to program IDs.
This is particularly helpful when you are not
near the trunked system you wish to later
monitor. You can set it up and have it ready
to go at some later time. After you have
selected the Scan List location (1-10), you
