The two biggest things if you're not familiar with it right out of the box to get to know very well with operating the scanner. 1) Understanding scan lists and turning them on and off 2) Understanding "service types" and turning those on and off. The service types are the biggest gotchya that catche...

Welcome to Scan New England. Yes, unfortunately your Bearcat 350A will not pick up the new WestComm digital trunk. You will need a new scanner for it. You will have to get a new scanner. To make your life easier, if you don't want to go through programming a new scanner, I will suggest either a Home...

Band may be opening up again.

I think it was Mohegan Sun. I believe they had Tait TETRA System. LAX Airport I believe also has a TETRA system. ARINC at LAX and JFK are Tetra https://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?sid=8756 https://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?sid=6684 New Jersey Transit is Tetra https://www.radioreference.co...

Tetra, while rarely used, is used in the US a little. Some of the other National Grid systems in the US use it. Tetra is very popular in Europe and Canada. Scott earlier mentioned this https://www.rtl-sdr.com/sdr-tetra-plugin-now-available-at-rtl-sdr-ru/ TETRA used to stand for Trans European Trunke...

Yes, it is very possible to show a TGID on a programmed conventional channel on the x36 series scanner. No, you can't only monitor the single TG conventionally, you still need to program in as a SFT. What you need to do is default the channel name field. Go to Menu, Manage Favorites, Select your fav...

Band seems open to the north. Some MSCommNet activity being heard here.

Blast my cookies? Reminds me of that night in Allentown... nevermind.

I can't get the map to open anymore on my desktop at work. The last few times I've tried, its always come up blank.
Does work fine on my phone however.

I'm familiar with it, as that has been Pittsfield, MA's PD frequency for ages too.

My Regency Z30 scanner couldn't receive it, because of the birdie.

When I got my first really good scanner, my Realistic PRO-2022, it was the first time I could hear them without it.
