Yesterday my BCD996P2 started making an intermittent humming type of sound after receiving a transmittion. It will continue to make the noise until I press the scan button, or turn the scanner off then on.
I monitor the Charlotte County Florida Public Safety System, which is a Motorola Type II Smart Net System. I have a Antenna Craft ST2 antenna mounted on my roof, and receive a strong signal. I've tried using the stock antenna, turning sqelch all the way down, have the latest firmware 1.05.02 installed, deleted system from scanner and downloaded system again from RR. It doesn't seem to be any particular talk group, Happens even if scanner is not connected to pc or any other peripherals.
So now I'm back to using my old BCD246t, and it work fine for what it does, but my 5 month old BCD996P2 is basically useless to me, as that system is the reason that I purchased it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated..Thanks in advance. Vin Napolitano
