When you program your scanner to track a Type I system, you must select a size code for each of these blocks. When you have assigned a size code to all 8 blocks, you’ll have defined the fleet map for the system you are tracking. Each size code determines the number of fleets, subfleets, and ID’s each...

Organize the system information using these system worksheets included in this appendix. • Use “Conventional System Worksheet” on Page 114 to organize info about conventional frequencies. • Use...
