I recently came across a "net" that I hadn't heard of before...
Can anyone direct me to or explain the differences between
SmartZone, Smartnet, Omnilink and the one that caused my question
Starnet?

Thanks!

After a quick look around, I found this: http://www.ukmidlandscanner.co.uk/trunked.htm From that page it sounds like it might be a UK implementation of Smartzone.

I don't know what area you are from, but in Houston STARNET refers to a large Smartzone system for Harris County and numerous other agencies.

The named it STARNET for Southeast Texas Area Radio Network.

This link went to an excellent trunking/Astro course by Motorola itself. I'm just getting a bunch of HTML crap when I click on it now, but it may be my browser's problem. Let me know if it works for you.

Otherwise, this is a good place to start learning:

Looked at the site and I also got a bunch of HTML stuff...
Still looking as Nothing seems to talk about "StarNet"....

THANKS!

Where did you hear the term starnet from? That may explain what they were talking about.

Do you perhaps mean StartNet?

For those trying to help, sorry for the delay, have been out of state...

Went back and rechecked... here is what was found...
SPECTRA 800mhz unit D45ZXA5JC7AK, ? Securenet,
And I guess I am looking for "Starsite" instead of starnet....
It has System Search and lock (which I have not delt with before...)

So, maybe someone might recognize this one... Sorry for the confusion!
