I'm not very experienced when it comes to programming the trunking end of the radio so this may sound pretty basic. My question is can the Astro Line support more than one system key? My county has a 500 mhz Astro system and I want to add another 500 mhz Astro system (different system key/id) for mutual aid, what it is required besides the proper system key? I'm geussing it depends on the flashoptions but need some clarification.
Thanks in advance,
Howard

Oh, sure. Definitely. Provided you have a way to get the trunking data into the radio, that is...and it's a trunking enabled radio.

You can have up to 254 modes and I'm not exactly sure how many separate individual trunked systems it can hold but I am pretty sure that it's more than 16.
