In the past two months I've run across two 996's that has visibly low RF sensitivity, especially in the 850-900 mhz band. Conincidently, both radios were mobile installations where two-way 450 mhz radios were in use.
1. Has anyone experienced damage to a scanner's front end, resulting in poor sensitivity, the result of being operated in close proximity to a transmitter?
2. In one of the above two radios, "poor sensitivity" was diagnosed after noting the signal strength on one radio was showing 1/2 the signal srength on the 996's "s-meter". Do 996's have an s-meter adjustment that may have been mis adjusted?
