OK, disclaimer lower then a newbie
I grabbed a RS PRO-106 (seemed to be a good scanner from my quick research. Few complaints, feature rich, and locally obtainable) Did I do bad getting the PRO-106? Also got an ARC500 lic. Though been programming it manually (*most* of the time. Been using the software to save set ups)
My county (Johnston, NC) Seems to Digital from most agencies and what-not. EMS, dog catcher, school buses, etc. are analog. Now NC has also been stated that its a VIPER system. That digital or analog?
I can listen to the analog stuff fine. But when I set the scanner up for digital, I get Zip. (It can't that quiet in my county) I've followed a few net resources and YouTube vids. (and all with a factory reset'ed scanner)
Is there a trick to digital? I've just been programming it with P-25 auto. (Tried moto 800/900 for viper)
Is there a glossary in the Wiki? (terminology is the key to learning something new)
(on a slight minor q, when a communication comes in the display shows the AFS (ie: 10-081) can I change that part to say EMS or something of my choosing?)
TIA,
Dave
