Anyone using the Control Channel Only mode with the Uniden BC780XLT to follow the King County Trunk Systems- I was hoping to program a number of Control Channels from the Seattle, EPSCA and KC/VC systems into a bank so that it would just switch from one system to another as I drive around the Puget Sound area.

Problem: Looking at the Freq listings, from both this site and joescanner.com, it looks like the freq lists don't match up to any of the four band plans described on pg 57 in the BC780XLT manual.

Most of the freq's end in 125, 375, 625, or 875, but not all. So plan 1,3,4 are out for sure, but plan 2 states:
If the last three digits of frequencies less than 869.0000 end in one of the following three digits (125, 375, 625, or 875) AND if ANY other frequencies end in (000,250, 500, or 750) use Plan 2.

On most of the systems, there is a freq in the 868.xxxx that ends with "0" (like 868.4750, 868.7750 and 868.7250) - these are less than 869, so they don't quite fit...

Anyone done this? What did you use?
