TK-780 out of band

Post by Johnny Grep »

Hi, I have a low split TK780 that I use with my trunking system. I would like to listen to channels in the 166MHz band, however when I program those, it just doesn't recieve or it gets choppy. I know the specs say 136-162, but I've heard there is a special way to get around the firmware blocking. When I change the channel from a low VHF channel to a 166MHz channel, I can hear for 1/4 of a second the traffic on that 166MHz channel, then nothing. Dead air all along. Can anyone help me? Thanks.
