Disable the priority if it's an annoyance. But if you have a priority when it is disabled, you won't hear it until other activity stops. The scanner will continue to look for activity on the priority channel(s) as long as priority is enabled.

Does this occur when someone is talking ? or All the time ?
Freq/Tone ?? User ??
Do you have another scanner running at the same time that could be causing the interference ?

ok i have a older scanner and my ws1065 . the ws 1065 like i stated on channel 154.44500 pl 173.8 sounds like it switches to a priority channel while there is a transmission going on. But there is No priority or weather highlighted. When i go into the win500 software the box for priority is not highlighted anywhere and weather priority is turned off . Im at a loss. And my old scanner doesnt cut out at all so it def is ws1065
Its been a couple of days - have any luck figuring it out?

Turn OFF the older scanner and see if it still happens.

Sounds like the tone squelch isn't being broadcast constantly and your scanner is responding as it should in CTCSS mode, i.e. muting the audio when it doesn't see the tone. There could be several reasons that this is happening but if this is what is going on, then your scanner isn't broken. That's the good news. The bad news is, unless you leave it in Search mode, it's gonna keep cutting out on you.:twisted:
You could also try setting the CTCSS to "none". If there are no other frequencies that are close to that one in your area, then it should work fine.
