Operation
You can set your scanner to
change the way it receives
transmissions on Motorola,
APCO-25 and EDACS trunked
radio systems. These settings,
called Open Mode and Closed
Mode, control whether the scanner
monitors all traffic from a trunked
radio system, or only traffic from
talkgroups you specify. Unlike the
channel mode settings described
above, Open/Close mode settings
apply to a trunking system
programmed into a single bank.

talkgroups you are
interested in and exclude
others
