The BC898T Trunk-Tracker is a 500 channel (ten bank) scanner. Since the introduction of trunked systems, tracking a conversation on a conventional scanner was virtually impossible. Now with the Trunk-Tracker™ System you can search, lock-on and track a conversation-even if the channel changes between replies. Supported trunk systems include: Motorola Type I, Type II, Type IIi, Hybrid, SMARTNET™, and PRIVACYPLUS™, LTR trunking systems; EDACS trunking systems (including EDACS SCAT). There are 17 preprogrammed bands. Scan at 100 channels per second. Other features include: LCD dimmer, S-indicator, channel lockout, count key, manual tuning knob, weather alert, auto-store and ten priority channels. The BC-898T even has built-in CTCSS/DCS decode
