Hi gang, I'm a total newbie when it comes to scanners, but I'm not new to technology and communications. I just opened the box this afternoon and have gotten comfortable with the menuig system on the BC246T. I have keypad programmed a couple of conventional freqs from local Harford County systems and also tried to program some Moto Type II Trunk systems. Not sure what I'm missing but all I seem to get when scanning is a periodic static. I'm just wondering if I have the wrong system types or something. The only thing I have been able to get voice on is weather and CD channels (19). I'm using the following links for freq's.

I have not downloaded any firmware, patches, or programming software as I wanted to become comfortable with the keypad programming first.
Suggestions from anyone familiar with Harford Count, Northern Baltimore County freq/s and systems.
Thanks in advance,
