So I just got a new BCD996XT and I'm trying to listen to the P25 Douglas County Simulcast system and I'm having some issues. I live in Bellevue and can pick up Sarpy County Simulcast Motorola Type II Smartzone system perfectly. Google tells me that the Sarpy County tower is only 6 miles away from my home, and the Douglas County tower is 26 miles away. I know the range of the Douglas county system is only 25 miles and I think this is why I'm having issues, so I bought a Yagi antenna. I tried pointing it in the direction of the Douglas County tower, but I'm still just getting garbled transmissions. I've tried adjusting the secret menus by holding down the hold button when powering on the scanner, but nothing seems to help. Do you guys have any suggestions on what I can do?
Thanks!
Thanks!
