    Galax city Police, Virginia-Frequency Change?

    Folks are selling Uniden 996P2s frequently as they upgrade to other models that handle simulcast better than the 996P2. The 996P2 will handle NXDN with the upgrade purchase from Uniden. If you catch the right deal you can easily be under the $400. Reiford, I have not had a chance to look...

    ARCXT: 996p2 with ARC XT - NXDN issues - VA Counties

    I have some NXDN systems that I am trying to program into a 996p2 (equipped with the NXDN upgrade) but when I import, ARC XT does default into a NXDN "format" that allows me to enter the RAN etc. Most of the users I am trying to program are single freq users. Specifically Galax VA Fire and...

    Antenna help

    Mount the antenna on the roof with an nmo style mount. Can’t beat the performance.

    Sentinel: Block Changes?

    Make one cell the way you want it and then right-click on it and hit "Copy". Select the next cell in the column, hold your shift key down and select the last one in that column and the column should all highlight, and then right click and hit "Paste".

    I was about to suggest that. I experienced the same situation once upon a time and went so far as replacing antenna cable ends before i saw the problem.

    996XT (&396XT) Carroll Fire

    Your signal must not be that marginal if simulcast is an issue. Simulcast issues means you are getting a strong enough signal from at least two different sources to cause conflict. It is cheap way to try and fix the problem, a directional antenna is another way. Just throwing some ideas out.

    996XT (&396XT) Carroll Fire

    You can switch to a 50ohm dummy load antenna that will reduce the amount of signal you are receiving.

    SDS200 F150 Install

    I have a 2018 F150 and I used a mounting plate from Built Right. It works great. I have an SDS 200 and a Moto 2-way mounted on the bracket. Built Right makes a bracket for the 2021+ Fords. I am not affiliated with them in anyway but do like the products I have bought from them...

    Advice on buying

    The Unication G5 is a pager, it is not a scanner. You can use it as a quasi scanner but you are limited to scanning a single system at a time which may or may not be a deal breaker for you. That said, the G5 works great within its limitations. With creative programming it can be quite good...

    BCD325P2/BCD996P2: Is my BCD996P2 obsolete?

    I am in concord, but I have a large external omni antenna outside as well as a yagi that I switch between. I also have a 50ohm dummy load that goes into the rotation as needed. I also have a 996p2 set up in my office near UNC Charlotte. The 996P2s have done well for me but I know how to...
