My station uses pocsag 1500 Baud alpha paging to get calls. I was wondering if set off a Minitor 5 pager using the Pocsag capcode? I just looking to set the pager off don’t need voice traffic.

POCSAG comes in 512, 1200, and 2400 baud flavors. And the Minitor 5 supports Quick Call, not POCSAG (which is all digital data). No, you can't make an M5 alert monitoring a POCSAG paging channel.
