[TheList] trunking

Mon Feb 24 17:10:08 AEDT 2020

The scanner needs the P25 card to do P25 and I think it was limited to phase1... Type 1 and 2 wasn't a big thing here, the only LTR stuff would be the prisons that are now digital encrypted in Canterbury. I never heard of any EDACS systems either.  So unfortunately to be the barer of bad news, but I don't see you listening to much trunking stuff with that scanner to be fair.
