Can someone help me? I’ve never had an issue listening to Dothan and Houston County scanners but the last time I’ve been able to listen to any of them was June 25th. Can anyone tell me why? Is anyone else having this trouble? If you’re not having this issue, can you walk me thru how you’re...

I'm pleased to announce that the months-long investment, setup, analysis, and testing of my whole scanning project seems to be coming to a reasonable point to say it's STABLE and can run without much of my intervention. The minor details (UIDs, etc) continue in the background, and I seek to...

My scanner was working fine until a few weeks ago. I was listening to Forestdale Fire & Rescue in Jefferson County in Alabama. My scanner is stuck on one channel, and I'm getting no traffic.

Alrighty, allow me to explain this mess. I have an XTS5k model II capable of 9600 baud trunking. I program it step by step for NAS like I've done on plenty of other systems and to no avail it doesn't work. The display shows the talkgroup but no audio comes through, the speaker isn't an issue as...

hello everyone! I am in the process of moving houses, ( having to change addresses on everything uhhhhhh...) anyways! I was scanning through all of the frequencies in my scanner and hit the 700 MHz range and heard Jefferson county public safety's 800mhz radio system 's talkgroups on 700 MHz...
