Pro 106 missing calls

[YoungMeezy]

My uncle has the Pro 106, I just purchased the Uniden HomePatrol. We were comparing them and we both set our scanner to Fire dispatch channel in Colorado Springs. Half of the calls would not be heard on his scanner, while mine had traffic. He has had the Pro 106 for about 6 years, it has never been updated, could this be the issue? We checked things like squelch and Attenuation.... (I'm a newb to this )

Thanks
Meezy

You should do a upgrade. I did my pro 197 and noticed a big different.

What's the latest upgrade to the 106 and how do you check version again?

 

[kb8rvp]

As soon as you power on the scanner press the number 3 to see the current versions you have. I think the DSP is up to 1.4 and the CPU is up to 2.1.

If you can't find them send me a PM and I will email it to you.
