this is more of a general trunking question rather than a question
exclusively for the bc246t. let me first say that this is the first trunktracker that i have owned. i have scanned for years but could never justify spending $250 for my 4th scanner. well i finally bought one and i am glad i waited until the bc246t. i carry it with me to everywhere but the shower. anyway. my question. i have noticed that talkgroup id's are separated by 32 (or another number); for example-- 18300>18332>18364etc. Why do they just not go 18300>18301>18302 etc. ??? thanks in advance

I assume you are talking about Motorola ID's. They are actually seperated by 16. The other numbers in between are used for the special conditions i.e. emergency, patched, etc.

Depending on how the system is set up, they may not all be used in order. You may see 16, 32, 160, 320, etc. Clayton

Within the trunking system software, the talkgroups are in hexadecimal numbers. The talkgroup IDs you see are decimal representations of the hex numbers, and will always be divisible by 16 So talkgroup E4F0 would show as 58608
