Listen to CB on SDS100

[alleyoop]

Other than programming the CB channels into the SDS100 manually , how do I get them in there? I am a Radio Reference member and a user of the Sentinel software, but for the life of me I have been unable to figure out how to make Sentinel load, or even find, the CB channel frequencies.

CB is already programmed under 'Nationwide' systems. You can scan them under the DB or append to a favorite list.

For clarity's sake, you go to menu>set scan selection>nationwide and from there you can toggle on nationwide systems similar to selecting service types. CB is one of the ones listed.

Thanks for the tip, but that would mean de-selecting everything else, if I'm seeing this the correct way. HOWEVER, you DID make me think (something I don't do very well, at times) about where to look at this issue in Sentinel. I KNEW it had to be there somewhere, but without YOUR comments I was too dense to see it. I went into Sentinel, selected my county, did an edit of that favorite list, saw Nationwide stuff in there, and that led me to the CB entry in the database which I then selected/enabled/etc., and I now have what I wanted! MANY thanks for your help, it would have taken me forever (at least a long while) without your help.

Glad I could help. you would not need to de-select anything to turn on individual nationwide systems.

When I went into the setup from the scanner itself, ALL selections were ON. That's why I said I'd have to de-select everything else. You got me to where I wanted to be via Sentinel though, so I'm happy. Thanks again!
