Unlike my first post about the maxtrac800, this one is not about trunking alone.
-How does the system and talkgroup scans work and differ?
-How many systems can I scan at once?
-The radio allows 10 systems, 10 talkgroups and 10 conventional channels. Is there a way to create more talkgroups and get rid of the conventional channels or some of the systems?
--Or, if I want to listen to lets say 20 talkgroups on a system, can I program two systems the same, but with different sets of talkgroups and scan both systems simultaneously?
Perhaps the lack of talkgroups is the reason why I was told that the maxtrac800 "is not the best radio to monitor trunked systems".
--Finally, what is the part number of the logic chip that would allow me to make a type I trunking radio into type II? Would this changeover also allow type IIi hybrid systems?
