If necessary, use the decimal/period key or the CLR key to delete any unnecessary characters, and press
the SAVE softkey to save your TSYS name. Next, scroll to the Frequencies: field to begin entering the
control channel frequencies for the My System trunked radio system. Press the SEL key, and at the Ch01:
field you should enter the first control channel frequency for your Motorola trunked radio system. Simply
key in the frequency including the decimal point, and press the ENT key or the DONE softkey to store the
control channel frequency. Press the v key and repeat this step to add any other control channels used by
the system. Typically, a Motorola trunked radio site or system will have one active control channel and three
backup control channels. You need only enter the active control channel for the scanner to track the system,
but if the system switches to a backup control channel the scanner will not receive traffic unless the
frequency for the backup control channel has been entered.
Once you have finished entering the control channels, press the SAVE softkey, then press the SAVE
softkey again. This will store the new TSYS into memory and return you to the TGRP parameter entry. Your
display will now appear as follows:

Notice that the system name has changed to reflect the name you chose when you were entering the
parameters for the trunking system. As you enter this TGRP and other TGRP objects for this system, you
will just specify the system name here. So, the TSYS parameters for a system need only be entered once.
You simply specify the already-entered TSYS as needed when building more TGRP objects for the same
system.
Scroll down one click to the ID: field. Note that by default, the trunking talkgroup ID is set to Wildcard.
Wildcard is a special type of TGRP object that allows you to monitor all talkgroup call traffic on the
associated trunked radio system. Wildcard TGRP objects allow you to quickly find and store new or
unknown talkgroups on a trunked radio system. When a Wildcard TGRP object is mapped to an active
Scan List and scanned, all talkgroup traffic on the system is monitored, and you have the option to save or
lock out new talkgroups as they appear. You may wish to save your TGRP object as a Wildcard with no
further changes. If so, just press the SAVE softkey to store your new TGRP as a wildcard. By default it will
take the tag name of
ID: Wildcard.
HINT: Wildcard objects are easier to find and change later if you include an abbreviated name for the
system in the tag field.
