alert

I noticed the other day when some storms came through that the FIPS code detection on my SDS200 and SDS100 is not working correctly. I can get alerted of alarms sent by NOAA, but I can't get my scanners to properly decode the FIPS county code I have stored in them. As a result, they alert to...

Good evening Ive looked over some posts about the alert light, my question how exactly do I get it activated? I tried through the main TGID list on Sentinel, and even added the ones I was trying to activate to a favorite list but still a no go. Its been a few months since Ive updated the...

I found the below on the Uniden website (SDS100 True I/Q™ Digital Handheld Scanner) for the SDS100 and am wanting some verification. Are you able to program to allow mute until alert like a regular Minitor does on selective call? "Fire Tone-Out Standby/Tone Search – Lets you set the scanner to...

Hi all, I know this topic has been posted many, many, times before, but much of the information is greatly outdated. Especially in terms of broken links, old info, etc. I am seeking some help that I would really appreciate. I recently just got an amplified charger base for my Minitor V. I am...

Hello all, Does anyone know if it's possible to load customized alert tones into the Informer tone receiver? I can't see anything in the directory on the computer that allows it, unless there's a way to hack it by opening the unit. Basically what I'm trying to accomplish is for the speaker to...

I'm trying to find where in the programming software this option is. I'm sure it's sitting right in front of me but I can't seem to find it. I want to change the sound that is played when an alert is received but I can't seem to find the setting for it. Loads of sounds in the software but I'm...

Hello... I am curious to know if anyone has some insight on a small issue we are going to run into. We are about to go live on a new 800 Mhtz radio system, and will be using Motorola MCC7500 consoles. We currently utilize VHF two-tone paging to alert fire stations/pagers. When we go live with...

I am getting automated emails stating my feed is offline, probably 20 a day. Then, within a few minutes I receive another stating the feed in back online after I have made no changes or even been in the office to touch the computer. Feed was working fine up until a few days ago when we had a...

Questions about how scanning works on VX-180. I have two channels in my scan list. Both have 2-tone alert programmed, and both channels alert with the tones. Many times I'm away from the radio, and come back to find it displaying -CALLED- as it should. My questions are... 1. When it's...

Sorry if this is a little elementary, but I'm still getting to know my 396XT and FreeSCAN. I am looking for a way to set an entire GROUP to a particular COLOR. For example, I have about 70 talkgroups for my local police department. Do I have to individually set the color for each talkgroup...

I see the warning not to use the Feed Alerts on the admin page for weather alerts, what I'm wondering about is programming the scanner to do WX Alerts for our county here that would go out on the feed like the fire and EMS traffic. Does anyone provide that in their feed? It seems like it would...

I have the SAME number for my county. The input fields are: SAME Group Name FIPS1 FIPS2 FIPS3 Also do you check any of the 3 boxes? Weather alert, attenuater, record? Delay. 1 to 5? Thanks

There have been two incidents lately in my area where I (gasp!) didn't have any radios on to alert me that something was going on. More users than normal were connected to my feed in both instances. It would be a useful feature if feed admins could set a listener threshold, where when the...

Is it possible with the API to remotely update the News and Feed Alerts? I listen a lot on my Blackberry, and it would be nice to be able to submit the News/Alert information via SMS, email, web app, etc. Anyone doing this? Is it possible? kd8jhc

Im looking for Marion or Cedar Rapids Iowa frequencies. I have a analog scanner capable of picking op trunked systems, I think it goes up to 956.00 mhz. If anyone out there has freq's I would love to have some. I have searched this website and I want more frequencies. If you have odd ball or...

Hi! Just checking to see if anyone has used the SAME Standby mode on the PRO-164 or any scanner and if it works well. I have been anxiously waiting for a watch or warning to set the scanner and wait for the alarm to kick on, but nothing yet!

I'm a new-comer to the world of radio's and I need some help. I'm in high-school and working on a senior project. Basically our idea is a safety system for automobiles that cuts out the car radio when there is an emergency vehicle in in the area and inserts an emergency broadcast. The device...
