Re: Antenna Work

I think the coax needs to be replaced at the least. The Discone has atrocious reception, so bad in fact I don't even use it. I'd like to try and get both antennas up on the tripod if possible. I'd side mount the Discone but I'm wary of that based on your history doing that and its affects on recepti...

Antenna Work

Looking for someone to help with some rooftop antenna work this spring/summer. Would need a 30ft ladder to get up on my roof. First, taking down a Discone antenna currently side mounted off my house. Removing a Diamond dual band antenna mounted on a 10 ft tripod on my roof, attaching the Discone in ...

Re: Sentinel Software problem?

Stuff happens, especially with the newer scanners that rely of programming software. I have experienced similar issues before. Every time it turned out to be a setting somehow got changed. No rhyme or reason but it happened. Always look to the smallest setting and double check them.

garys,

Re: Uniden programming cables for Windows 11

Well, no luck updating drivers for my cable that I use for my XT scanners. Its a USB to serial cable. Downloaded the latest drivers, unzipped the file, ran the program, connected to my BCT15XT and when I run Freescan software it cannot connect to the scanner. When I navigate to control panel/device ...

Re: Uniden programming cables for Windows 11

If you haven't try downloading the drivers and installing them again. The 436HP uses a regular USB cable, so you shouldn't need any special drivers. Also if you use Sentinel for programming the 436HP, try uninstalling and reinstalling it. It's probably a driver issue and you don't need new cables. ...

Uniden programming cables for Windows 11

My computer was recently refurbished with Windows 11 and it appears my current programming cables for my BCD436 and my 996XT and 15XT will not work with Windows 11. I see this cable on the Scannermaster site but it's out of stock. Does anyone have input on where else I can find the proper cable(s) f...

Re: Falmouth Police?

Is the frequency somehow locked out in the software? Maybe it's not loading to the scanner if it is.

Re: Falmouth Police?

It's in the RR database, correct? It's in the software, correct? Can you manually scroll to where it should be in the radio and see if it's there? Try a new upload from the RR database.

Re: Antenna suggestions for my setup

I have that antenna. It has been a very good dual band antenna and, unfortunately, I have been using it on Zone 4 of the MSP system because I have a Discone mounted off the side of my house but I think it needs new coax, reception is very poor with it. The DJ130N actually works pretty well on the MS...

Follow up to this. My cousin bought this scanner and I programmed it for him. He tells me he is now seeing a capital F flashing on the display in the upper left corner. Otherwise it seems to be working fine but it's been so long since I've had this scanner that I can't remember what the cause of the...

What is the "Sandwich Moiraine?" What stuff along the Canal? PAVE PAWS? It does help, thanks. I would try to put the preamp at the antenna but the concern there is the power connection as you describe it. It's unfortunate that it can't be powered over the coax with a power injector. The fi...

Re: 151.715 D047

That would make sense, as Pocasset is actually the street name for the dirt road adjacent to the main entrance, although it's not really a street.
