Newbie here...How do you guys keep track of what agencies are in what group quick keys on the trunking scanners?

Do you print out a cheater card or something for all the individual TGID's

Consistency. I've always used 1 for fire and 2 for police, etc. That and text tags.

I'm with Taco: the groups are the same in most every system. Within the group, there's an order that becomes obvious once I start scrolling: usually alphabetical but sometimes purely by freq/talkgroup.

The primary systems themselves are easy to remember, and I have a cheat-sheet for the rarely-used ones (actually it's more of a map).

My exception to this is for agencies that have their own regional breakdown: there are eight WSP districts, six DNR ...

Does anyone else place a sticker on their radios? That way you can put a blank sticker on when you reprogram. :mrgreen:
