[FedCom] Uniden BC-796D

[J&D Schnoor]

I am still coming up to speed on P25.  As I understand it, for P25 radios to
communicate with one another they need the following settings to be the
same:

1)  Network Access Code  (NAC)

2)  Talk Group Identification (TGID)

3)  Mobile Manufacturer Identification (MFID)

This would assume that they are on the same radio frequency.

With the Uniden BC-796D, does the end user program a given frequency and the
scanner will decode either analog or P25, or do you need to program which
type of modulation?

Another question I have is about the P25 NACs.  I have seen $61F on mutual
aid frequencies.  Is this a nationwide NAC for all mutual aid frequencies?
Also, is there are common TGID and MFID for mutual aid frequencies?
