Completely Banned for the Greater Good
Hello all,
I have been scanning away on local LA frequencies from the comfort of my hotel room in El Segundo this afternoon and tonight. I put together a system for the Sheriff Department. However, I am having a very annoying problem with this group on my BCT15X:
I can hear a female dispatcher loud & clear carrying on conversations with officers, but I can only hear her side of the conversation. After she is done talking, the scanner stays locked on the channel because a series of beeps is produced right after she's done talking. I have hit HOLD and scrolled through all frequencies in this group and the beep is on ALL Sheriff channels. On top of that, when she IS talking I can hear her on every Sheriff channel, as if the channels are all duplicates.
Am I doing something wrong, or is this a known phenomenon? I figured I'd ask the "veteran" LA area scannists about this one....
Thanks for any help!
