If you update the database in Sentinel, you will most likely find that system is already programmed in the database and you don't need to reinvent the wheel programming it from scratch.

STARCOM is in the main database, and it is updated. You're just not looking in the right place.

There are at least 10 IDOT departments under STARCOM in Sentinel.

No. They can be any number between 0 and 16.7 million.

I'm finding the "IL-Starcom " database on this web site rr.com to be the most up to date you will find ....Its done by very factual and best scanner people you can find.....

Its not the scanner, its your programming, your antenna, or your too far from the system...Digital is far different than analog.....

Without seeing your Favorite List, there's no way to tell what you are doing wrong.

Scan from the main database. Everything you want to hear is already in there. You're not yet skilled enough to program a favorite list.

Are you still using that "piss poor" Uniden 536? Is that your only scanner?
