Angry Can't receive frequency on Pro-18

I cannot receive 2 frequencies so far on my Pro-18 when my Pro-96 does get them, the 2 I cannot get on my Pro-18 are for ambulance & Fire. 155.220 & 154.160, what could be going on???

Default Pro18

Try the antenna from the Pr-96 on the Pro-18 and see what happens

So far so good, had to erase the whole scanner and refresh it with updated frequencies, and they work, thanks for the suggestion however. Also I use a telescopic BNC ant for it in the house, as well as an outside base ant.
