So my Uniden GPS arrived today and I've played with it for about 10 minutes so far. It's competing with the Rolex 24 hours race at Daytona this weekend. Anyhow i wanted to confirm a few things I've noticed. Thought folks who have been using it for a while could confirm or correct me in these.
1. I see no LED on the device as referenced in the manual.mare they talking about the GPS indicator on the (436) display?
2. It seems favorites lists are of little value in "GPS mode". Is it best to simply turn on the entire database and use service types to limit what I hear?
3. I assume when the scanner detects a location and prompts for confirmation it is indicating the county and state? We have multiple towns with names similar to the county name here.
4. Any thoughts on what a useful range setting is when driving, highway speeds on Interstates for example? I was thinking 15 miles perhaps based on what I saw included when I went to 30 or even 20 miles - way too much.
