Astro Spectra alias?

Post by bellersley »

I think I've asked this on here before, but I can't remember.

I've got a VHF W4 Astro Spectra (R11.10.00, I08.02.06) that's flashed for Digital ID Display and Analog ID Display. What I'm wondering, is there any way I can alias a number of trunking IDs to show a name instead of just the radio ID when they transmit? Thanks!

I'm looking for the same answer, also with the XTS5000. The department was told that they would do this, but haven't been able to make them, thus far. It just shows the digital Astro ID. This is a single channel VHF Astro system I'm working with. I used to be able to do it with 800 Smartnet by creating a private call call alert list, and when the ID came up; it showed the name instead od the six digit ID, IF I had it stored in the call list - sort of like the caller ID on a cell phone.

Any suggestions?
