I download Freescan to program my Uniden BC346XT and every time I click download to scanner it comes with an error stating " Unable to set WX " ant idea what I am doing wrong or how to correct this. Thanks
I had a chance to reprogram my scanner this week. It had been a couple years and I didn't document how I did it before. Mine's the BCD396XT. I encountered the same message when trying to upload my new configuration.
In Freescan I went here:
Scanner:Setup Scanner Options | WX Alert
I created a SAME group name (I named it for the county I live in), and entered the official SAME code for that county in the box initially called "FIPS 1". I imagine I could have instead named the SAME group like "Central MN" and added several SAME county codes, but I'm mainly just interested in my own county.
I then re-saved my configuration file, and re-uploaded it to the scanner, clearing all previous settings. This time, there was no such error message. Maybe it's happier if there's at least one SAME group in the config.
