a single statewide trunked radio system, which allows radio

users from multiple agencies to share a single sophisticated

radio system that provides coverage throughout the entire state.

If you wish to explore statewide trunked radio systems, scroll to

Systems and press the  to proceed to the next step.

NOTE: ! When selecting objects below the Systems level from either States

! or Cities/Counties, keep in mind that one or more Sites must be also

! be selected along with any individual talkgroup objects that you pick

! from a System. When in doubt about which Site should be selected,

! you can select all sites, or even the entire System, and the EZ

! Scan-SD will automatically ﬁnd and use the best available site. For

! more information about Systems, see the Conventional Frequencies

! and Trunking Talkgroups section below.

More often than not, youʼll probably want to explore counties and

independent cities for radio systems and users in your immediate

area, so for this step by step process, weʼll use Counties/Cities

as our example.

Scroll to Counties/Cities and press the  key to proceed. Youʼll

be presented with a list of counties and independent cities for

your state, with the counties appearing ﬁrst at the top of the list.

Now, scroll to your county or independent city and press the 

key to proceed to the next step.

HINT: ! You can also press the  key anytime to navigate backward through

! the Library menu system.

For counties and independent cities, there will typically be three

options to choose from: Agencies, Categories and Systems. The

association of objects with each of these groups depends a lot

on how the RadioReference volunteers decide to group the

information they submitted to the RadioReference database.

Youʼll likely ﬁnd businesses, airports, attractions, authorities and

other non-governmental entities under the Agencies group.

Government and public safety entities will likely be found under

Categories, or, if the county or city operates a trunked radio

system, under the Systems grouping.

The EZ Scan-SD makes it easy for you to explore all of these

groups. Just use the  and  keys to “drill in” and “drill out” of

the Libraryʼs menu system.
