trunked radio

Post by wacker13 »

I am having difficulty figuring out why when I program type 1 subfleets I can only enter the first 5. For instance 000-A thru 000-F and 400-A thru 400-P. How am I able to hear 000-G thru 000-P and 400-G thru 400-P. I know the protical type is IIi and the fleets are 000-400 and the size code is 0. The only other info I have is
Block 0/ s-13(0)
Block 4/ S-13(0)
If anybody can help me out it would be greatly appreciated. For those who have helped me in the past thanks-it really has helped.

Well, first of all, subfleets are in hexadecimal format, which is the regular 1 to 9, then A to F. No other letters such as G or P.
Next, the size code will determine how many subfleets you can have. "A" size codes have a maximum of 4 subfleets, I believe. "B" can have up to 8, "C" up to 8, and "D" up to 16 (0 to F in hexadecimal).
You have indicated "O" size codes, which still only allow 16 subfleets. So, you if you are able to enter up to F, then you have them all, you just have to start at 1, not A (000-1, 000-2....000-F).
The info on here on tunkedradio.net might help you too:

There's some Type I info about 3/4 of the way down the page.
