How does the digital/trunking repeater system work ? The first misunderstanding is the word “digital”. There are many scanners that have a digital display, but will not receive digital formatted signal. In fact, there are only a very few scanners that will receive the new digital trunking formated signal and they are quite a bit more expensive. Here’s how the digital/trunking works. Digital means, When someone transmits on a 2-way radio using a “ digital” radio, it converts their regular analog voice to a digital format. Just like a computer when it converts your information data. In fact, it is a computerized 2-way radio system. That is why you need a digital receiver that will convert the digital signal back to analog voice.
The “trunking“ part of the system uses up to 15 different channels which are shared by multiple users or agencies. Each time they transmit, the system randomly selects an open available channel for them to use..
“Repeater“ systems electronically repeats the radio’s transmission providing longer range. This also usually allows you to receive both sides of the communications very clearly.
Since the new system has been activated, users and agencies have been very happy with the results. The performance, clarity, and coverage have met most everyone’s needs and expectations.
To hear most of the police , fire and ambulance conversations and the 911 center, you need a new digital trunking scanner with P-25 format abilities.
The problem is, digital scanners are more expensive than analog scanners and are very complicated to program.
