My whistler TRX-1 scanner is making a hissing noise in the background sounds something like white noise in the background when monitoring the TXWARN P25 system , i couldn't figure out what was going on. I turned the scanner off then back on , tried using it on battery power and plugged in , tried different antenna , so I decided to try doing an update on the scanner with E-Z scam software, and that's when this dreaded message popped up saying "socket error 10060. I know people have talked about it here once before but I don't think anyone provided a solution ? Can anyone help ?
Socket error 10060

- Start date
I just turned the squelch knob clockwise then back and while a talk group was talking and the white noise was in the background and it stopped , however when the next transmission comes across the noise in the background returned I don't know if this noise and the socket error are related ??

as far as the socket error goes, read through the entire thread linked below:
WS1080: - Whistler weekly Database Updates
Are the Whistler database updates still being created every week? Have they been moved to someplace else? Every time I go to EZ Scan for a database update it tells me I already have the latest version. It has been 2 to 3 weeks now.
Thanks

A bit of a GEEK!
It was merged:
ezscan socket error #11001
I am getting this socket error trying to update the library on both versions of ezscan (TRX-2 and WS1080), I have already updated ezscan via the standalone update and I have turned off all windows firewalls as this has previously solved the problem, but not this time. I am running windows 10...
