I searched (maybe I'm searching the wrong term cause I can't imagine I am the only one with this problem) & didn't find an answer so I decided to go ahead & start a thread.
I have used scanners in the past & never had any issues, but I recently purchased a table top model & after programming in channels given to me by the local radio shack, at first I got traffic, not as much as I expected but some & now I'm only picking up traffic once every few days. I know that can't be right cause I live in a descent size town & I'm not even getting police coming on & off duty. I get a little traffic ever couple/few days that is quick enough that I don't even hear what it is.
I have adjusted the squelch to every setting possible so that's not it. I'm at a loss so I thought I'd find a good radio forum & ask people who actually know. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks so much every one!
Oh, I am using a Radio Shack PRO-650 200-Channel Desktop Radio Scanner. I live in Vernal, Utah in Uintah County. There's definitely traffic out there, LOL!
