Saving Trunking Channels
Trunking channels are defined using the same procedure for
non-trunking channels. In each bank, you can mix channel modes,
including conventional, but you can scan only one trunking mode at
a time, either EDACS, Motorola, or LTR.
Because Motorola control frequencies change daily, you should
save all the control frequencies in the same bank. If you do not
know the control frequency, save all the Motorola frequencies in the
same bank.
EDACS frequencies are assigned Logical Channel Numbers (LCN)
and organized in a specific order. To scan correctly, you must
program the frequencies in LCN order, starting with Memory 01.
Notes:
Trunked modes (MO, ED, and LT) can only be selected for
frequencies above 137 MHz that use trunking operations.

Tags” on Page 47.
