And what is wrong with monitoring? If he is transmitting ok that's a horse of a different color.

Good luck on your search for your digital syskeys which it sounds like you are looking for. I know that you will not find any and if you do for some reason they will not work right.

As said earlier the 3600 "APCO25" (and I use that term very carefully) is fully decodeable and trunk trackable with the new Uniden Scanner coming out. This elminates the need of having a radio and getting syskeys for the system.

As you may know or may not know if you have a syskey then you almost have full access to the system. From there all you ready need is an id and your just about home with the ability to transmit, and I am pretty sure you will not get that for a system the state police work off of.

Hell even over here in MN where we are starting to slowly migrate over to the "APCO25" (careful) 9600 digital system, and I work for a dealer of EF Johnson "APCO25" radio dealer, we have a hell of a time getting keys to program radios for depts. that are signed up and will be using them on the system.
As for using a scanner over here that is more difficult as the uniden as far as my research has gone is not able to decode and trunk the 9600 bauds so that screws me for MN here and for MI.

But on the other side of the coin if some how you get one of those keys and plug it in to the radio and law enforcement over there gets wind of it, I (personally) think we may see you on one of the "How my radio got taken away from me by law enforcement" threads.

Good luck.

Ok, I'm going to chime in here;

The Frquency that he wants to monitor comes back to the New Hampshire State Police Troop A. My Police Call book States that it is a digital frequency. It is not a Trunked System so you do not need a System Key, Network ID, or Digital ID as he calls it.

As I see it, This person would be better off getting the Uniden scanner with digital card when it comes out...

hpandcanon.....

why did you delete the first two posts you made on batlabs when we questioned programming the xts3000, etc.?

The latest in a series of inquiries where the poster doesn't know what to do with the answers he's receiving. As indicated by several a scanner and his questions on a scanner group would be more productive.

hpandcanon-

If you are indeed inquireing for recreational scanning, and you are wanting to listen to a IMBE system, then there is no need for any system key, as you are not transmitting on a frequency that you aren't licenced for, no system key is going to be required.
If I were you, I would look back to past posts of when other folks have asked for very similar information with the idea that they wanted to transmit there...be carefull with what you ask sir.

Sorry, this one too is going to get locked.

As I said in the last thread you started, keep this up, and you'll be removed from membership.

The people here have better things to do with their time than to answer your poorly thought out and not researched questions.
