Trunked Systems
Your UBC780XLT is designed to track three major types of trunked radio systems. These
systems are described here.
❖MOTOROLA - Including Type I, Type II, Hybrid, SMARTNET, and Privacy Plus.
Motorola systems are widely used by public safety and business users. Most are on
the 800 MHz band, and recent systems are appearing on other bands.
❖EDACS - Including "Wideband" 9600 baud, and "Narrowband" 4800 baud systems.
"Wideband" systems are mostly on the 800 MHz band, and are used by public safety,
utilities, and business users. Some systems are used on the VHF and UHF bands.
"Narrowband" systems are used in the 935-940 MHz band, many by utilities.
(See page 49)
❖LTR - These systems are mostly for business users, and found on the UHF,
800 and 900 MHz bands. (See page 48)
For details on the operation and programming for all of these systems, see pages 32-34.
When tracking these types of systems, remember these important points:
• Your scanner defaults to monitor Motorola Type II systems; however, you can change this
if the system in your area is different. (The types of systems are discussed in the following
pages.)
