Setting Custom Tables for rebanded 800MHz systems
- If you have a premium subscription, software that supports the web service will download the correct system type and custom tables automatically.
- Before proceeding, look at the system type. If the system is a Motorola type;
- Those systems that say APCO-25 Common Air Interface Exclusive cannot be tracked by the scanners covered in this article. A digital trunktracker is required to track these systems.
- Any talkgroup marked with a 'D' in the Mode column of the database is digital, and therefore cannot be received by scanners in this article.
- Look at all the frequencies. If the 4th decimal position is a '5' in every frequency, then you may be able to reprogram without firmware updates or a custom table. If any of the frequencies have a '0' then updating the scanner will be required to properly track this system
- EDACS type systems will only need to be reprogrammed with the new rebanded frequencies. No firmware fixes are required to track these systems.
- NOTE: Neither the PRO-97 nor PRO-2055 can be modified for rebanding.
