Ct state police

[jeffolson]

Hi new to this game, need help! Have a new BCD996P2 UNIDEN. Downloaded CT police from RR and it is giving me some 800m error? This scanner should be able to run this if I am correct? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Jeff.

Yes, the scanner should work fine for CSp. I am listening now on a 996XT.

What do you mean 800m error?

Sorry, not familiar with that error.

I suggest you download Freescan and give it a try. (It's free)

In the meantime, I'm sure someone will chime in.

Good luck.

The rebanding table must be entered with FreeScan you can't do it on the scanner.

I just tested downloading the system and for some reason it downloads as a Motorola Standard instead of a Motorola Custom system type.
You can change it on the keypad but you need to edit most of the Sites and type in a two line band plan. It may be quicker and easier to do with the software
