The advantage of the I-Call for now is the units are using them as somewhat private channels -- so you may hear more inside stuff. Last night I heard a situation report on a detective who was in the hospital because he tripped and fell while pursuing a suspect....every detail reported right down to the catheter being put in....

The I-Call feature is worth the price alone.

I also noticed that you get a listing on the screen if the frequencies are patched from one channel to another. I haven't explored this enough to understand what I'm doing. I think I'll have to wait and read the FAQ on here to understand more about programming the ID's.

For now I've let my 780 search the all the talk groups for Hartford. I've noticed detective activity on some of the groups marked as Public Works -- so I don't want to limit myself to only the groups marked for police.

Regards,

Wayne
