PRadio Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 I was looking online to see what I needed to listen to my local police. I use an Android scanner app that has some area police, but not mine. So I wanted to see what equipment I would need. I found they are using 155.43. I realized that should be in the TR-505 range. I decided to see if I could program that frequency into the Tera, and it accepted it along with the PL code. It picked up traffic just fine. I then went back and programed the transmit on that channel to a GMRS frequency to be safe in case someone keyed the mic. It is working great. Not the intended use for it, but it is nice to having to buy new equipment. Durake and Logan5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtech Posted July 1, 2018 Report Share Posted July 1, 2018 I bought a pair of the TR-505s to give to my (grown up) children. I put in the 'mid power' GMRS channels, and our local NOAA weather channels. If you tab into the TX frequency column and hit the delete key to erase the numbers, transmit is disabled. n4gix, PRadio and Logan5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
